We get a sense that people need to be reminded to share their faith and so we create a program or a timetable. We ask people to sign up to things o r attend events, and our meetings can start to feel like a campaign meeting in a political party.

We can have fun times chatting about interests we might have in common other than the kingdom of God. But there must be a time in our week dedicated to those activities at the end of the previous paragraph. This time of worship will actually provide the greatest edification of your entire week.
