My neighbor doesn't want to go to church

Halloween night and we followed our tradition of sitting on the driveway and talking with children and their parents. Our neighbor came over and asked about our "church". We explained that we no longer attend and she was shocked!! They had seen the cars lined up outside of our home for church bar-b-ques, Bible studies, and other "church" events and it didn't make sense that we stopped attending. Our neighbor's response was fun, she LOVED the idea of not having to go to a church (they've seen the productions get bigger and bigger on Sundays). We explained that we wanted to make time for people and we'd love to start getting together with them to hang out.

You see, we started out having fun time with neighbors and friends sharing the love of Jesus and then we just got "church" busy. The busier we got with "church" the less time we had to share Jesus with those who need to meet Him. So, again it is confirmed that we are on the right journey.
