Just a thought
Have you ever thought that after a while the church kind of seems like a club?
I mean think about it, it's like the people that are inside know all the rules and the little things that they have to do but the people who visit come in and it all seems so foreign to them. They don't know when to sit or when to stand, they don't know what to say or do and they surely can't speak the churchy church talk.
I am so amazed at how the church builds walls instead of bridges. If you look at what Jesus said in Luke 15 when he speaks about the lost sheep. He doesn't put all of His effort into the 99 that he already has, he puts into finding the lost sheep.
We need to be concerned about those who are lost. That's what the great commission is all about isn't it?
