The Importance Of A Church Family

Why you need these awesome supporters in your spiritual life

The Importance Of A Church Family

Oh, the importance of having a church family.

I believe that the Christians you keep in your circle contribute to your commitment to God. Of course, it is possible to have a relationship with God and not with anyone who does as well, but it is so very difficult to keep yourself on track.

Like I said above, a church family contributes to your commitment to God. That statement is very real. When you are falling in your walk with christ and you are feeling hopeless, these key people lift you and encourage you. Your faithful companions can help you when you are feeling doubt in your faith.

I have experienced this firsthand.

In the few bible studies I have taken part of, and our Wednesday night groups, I have created incredible bonds with people. Some, we have barely scratched the surface of friendship and I know certain people would risk their life for me. People have proven to have my back and support me through all my ups and downs. There are people that don't know God that can be this true and genuine but it is rare. It is the true and pure joy of knowing our Creator and Savior.

Not only is a church family genuine and supportive, we share the bond of having a deep relationship with our Heavenly Father. What precious connections and conversations you can have with a group of people that share in your true faith with you.

This is so vital and special and I highly encourage anyone who does not have a church family to connect with me.

Reach out to me.

I have open arms in likeness with our incredible Father.

A church family is so important.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
