Oh boy!

"If you took away your Sunday service(s) and your building(s) what would you have left?" Richard Greene

Will someone take a stab at the answer? Is there anyone honest enough to say "nothing left" if it is "nothing left"? Will someone tell us what is left if you have something left?

A handful of believers who would be looking for each other and connection.

A plethora of believers who would simply fold into a nearby church.

A handful of attenders who were just looking for a reason to stop going to church staying home in bed.

The same church I had before.

Mike - If all the churches lost their buildings where do you think the plethora of believers would go then?

Now what are we going to do? No Sunday services or buildings how in the world will we survive?

Terry: Maybe 40% of them would seek out the first handful (probably closer to maybe 25%), the rest would probably go back to bed.

I have no numbers to back this up, just conjecturing.

Mike, maybe a moajority would hide out in bed. Not you of course but many of the rest.

In your church what would the stats look like?

It wouldn't make much of a difference to me. While I attend a Sunday service in a building, my spiritual edification comes from close friends, brothers and sisters in Christ, who I connect with during the week. Jesus said, 'where two or more are gathered together in my name, there I am in their midst'.
