if people don't need church, then what about the fellowship of believers?

fellowship definitely has its place. being social beings who require external interaction in both the physical realm, our spiritual lives are no different. in isolation, we easily wither away.

because of this, church can provide venues for spiritual support, accountability, and collective learning. however, the church also has a stigma of judgment, ostracism, and intolerant dogma. a stigma that blinds the world.

the message that Jesus lived and proclaimed is radical - a simple offering of hope. it's that hope that the world desperately seeks and the hope that only Jesus can give.

i think most people just don't like christians...they like all that forgiveness and stuff like that just not the followers
