However, we feel that many do not directly address the subject with the importance it deserves. Those Churches KNOW that many members of their flocks are in the habit of living non-Christian lives during the week. We believe that Scripture has a more strict position on this. Rather than JUST focusing on confessing one's recent sins to attain and maintain God's Grace, we also focus on proper Christ-like behavior and motivation to minimize our sins and to help God be pleased by what He created in mankind. This situation also makes for great happiness and fulfillment in our members.
Many people grumble regularly about the state of modern society.
The cynicism, frustration and depression that many people feel these days is NOT the only option. Even short of this, our examples of actively and visibly treating others in a Christian manner should be examples to encourage others to consider treating each other in better ways. If even a few people in our society soften their attitude toward their business rivals, bosses, spouses, children, parents, clients, or neighbors, then the world will be a better place. Our congregation members can contribute toward achieving this end. Many pursue it by chasing power, fame, wealth.
