The Christian life is meant to be lived in community. Or is it? Many people question whether or not this is actually true, thinking that they can follow Jesus without being involved in a local church.In this episode (featuring our kids minister, Zach Baker), we look at the Bible and tackle what it actually says about the importance of church. We also discuss some common excuses that keep people from attending church and address what "church hurt" is and how people can heal from it.Scriptures referenced in this episode:Hebrews 10:24-25 https://lifept.cc/3MG0Q2xActs 2:42-47 https://lifept.cc/4e3dm8aLooking for a church? https://lifept.cc/3z5bD3mRead (Zach) - Ain’t Too Proud to Beg - Telford Work https://lifept.cc/3XdB1MgRead (Nick) - Sunday Matters - Paul David Tripp https://lifept.cc/3TfZ6RiListen (Heath) - Forrest Frank https://lifept.cc/4gfArGEListen (Caleb) - Old Friends - Ben Rector https://lifept.cc/3XxlfgC 0:00 The Church is a spiritual union2:20 What is the best concert you’ve been to?8:05 What is the church?12:53  Why is it important to gather with the church?22:10 What are some common excuses for not going to church?31:48 Too busy for Church?36:27 Church hurt45:29 What should I look for in a church?52:56 Final thoughts56:44 Read, Watch, Listen
