What do you look for?
I am curious. What are the most important things families look for when it comes to being a part of a church? It is very easy for me to assume that certain things are important but I want to hear it from you. Fill me in! Thanks!

A place where people share their testimony in services each Sunday because they rely on God all the week.
A place where actions of love and forgiveness are freely given to each other every day.
A place where people share their thoughts with passion and pursue holiness with fervor.
A place where acceptance is the norm not the exception.
A place where families are treated first as a unit and the role/authority of the parents isn’t infringed upon by the church.
A place that is both willing to look and live *completely different* than the world, and at the same time be completely open and accepting to those in the world.
A place where the people look up to folks that serve others, instead of heroes that are waited upon.
A place where they don't focus on their doctrinal uniqueness or speak disrespectfully of those who disagree with their views.
A place where they don’t put you in box based upon your up bringing, clothes or place of work.
In short, a place where they don’t just call themselves Christians, show up at church on Sundays and make excuses for living like the world the rest of the week.
Beautifully put. I hear in your responses the heart of Jesus. Who he was, how he acted, what he taught. Thanks for sharing! Hope all is well!
