Sitting In A Pew Won't Save You

You aren't going to get a special place in heaven just because you sat in the exact same spot, in the exact same pew, every single Sunday for 40 years. That isn't faith—that’s just a habit. So many modern churches are completely stuck running on a script of "this is the way we’ve always done it." But comfort is the enemy of true spiritual obedience. Real faith isn't repeating old patterns; it’s following the Holy Spirit when He chooses to change the script entirely—just like He did with Moses at the Red Sea. The real test of a Bible-believing church isn't how clean the building stays. It's whether we're brave enough to open the doors and invite in the people who are actively searching for hope—even if they walk in with face tats, a criminal record, or missing teeth from years of struggling with addiction. "Seek, and you will find." But how can anyone find a safe place to heal if the community is too busy murmuring in the background? Are we prioritizing religious compliance over the actual gospel?
