The myth of Sunday's

I must admit you don't have to go to church on Sunday to be closer to God. You never have to show up to church because it is not a requirement to get into heaven. Somehow we did not communicate the importance of church. As I intend to do so I hope you will honestly read why you should go to church.

Why do you go to work? Why do you go to the gym? Why do go to the outlets? Why do you go to the supermarket? Why are you in book reading club? Why do you have wine night at your house? Why do you dismiss people who aren't like you?

Each question brings everything down to a few things but I will tackle the main point. They all bring like minded people together. Your recreation brings you to a location where everyone is doing

    For the devoutly religious, this might not be okay, however, for the more casual parishioner, that is probably fine. There is no law or rule that says that failure to go to church every Sunday will result in a fine or a one way trip to Hell. In general, it is not good to miss church for sports. But in the case of an extremely important event, missing one weekend of religion is acceptable. For example, a religious athlete, though he was typically not allowed to compete on Sundays, played in a state championship game even though it was on a Sunday.…

    HOW TO DECLUTTER YOUR LIFE Being swamped by excessive clutter seems to be a symptom of modern life which can have a wide-sweeping effect on most aspects of our existence, weighing us down and enveloping us in chaos which then detracts from our enjoyment of the simpler things in life.
