Why join a small church?

A Christian married couple I know of had to move out of London and leave their church to go north with the husband’s job.

Much to the surprise of some of their long-term Christian pals they began attending the little and very local Anglican church in the village to which they had moved. The friends of the couple had concerns. The church was small, the teaching was not heretical but it was not great, and there was nothing there for their four children.

How could we drive past?

It was while talking through these concerns one evening with one of their friends that the husband made a comment which was highly significant. He said, ‘How could we drive past one church to go to another?’ They felt, before God, they just could not do it.
