Hard to find this song but worth the listen when you do especially in the context of all the comments above. It’s a low quality recording of Buddy Greene accompanied by Jeff Taylor with lyric happily added to the screen.

My thoughts exactly. A zoom message is simply a message. It’s not church. I couldn’t wait until churches reopened.

It needn’t be either/or: services which are in-person and also relayed online include those who otherwise can’t attend, and enable the Church to know they’re still in touch and contactable, rather than fallen away. I can worship at Church in-person every week, and also join daily evening prayers (with live participation via the sidebar) with people from all the world online.
The challenge is to motivate Christians to worship in any of them: may the Spirit move in us strongly once more in these difficult times.

Church is a community of believers in Christ. Hard to be a community sitting at home watching on screen. Screen time served a purpose when we couldn’t meet together physically. Nothing beats meeting face to face and communicating in person. I’m very glad we can meet together again in person!

Sadly the church in Delhi was missing out on this.

A good correction. Thank you for representing the perspective of disability.

We must gather together to be the Body of Christ. We can’t have eyes, ears, hands, feet hanging out all over the place. It’s just not a body without togetherness. “Our Father….” Cannot be said alone in reality. It’s just not the way He taught it. “Forsake not the gathering……and so much more as we see that day coming “

I find it interesting to hear that one might “love God at home” but not love his neighbor. It would seem that loving God is obedience. Our God is a king, the most benevolent master in the world, and the only way to show love for such a being is to obey His commandments. Thanks for your commentary.

My husband and I have been to our physical church twice in the last 2+ years: this past Easter and last week Sunday. It was so wonderful to greet old friends, watch a friend’s granddaughter’s baptism, and catch up after years! Not to mention the joy of live choral/music and singing hymns with my friends. It’s physically and emotionally tiring, and more time consuming, but so much more rewarding.
