Frequently Asked Questions
What if we try out a new church and don't feel connected right away?+
That's okay! Sometimes it takes time to feel at home in a new community. Pray for patience and perseverance as you seek to find a place where you feel connected to God and His people.
How can we know if a church or community is truly following God's will?+
Seek a church that teaches God's Word accurately, values prayer and worship, and prioritizes serving others. Look for a community that demonstrates the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
What if my family feels led to stay in our current church, but I feel we need to leave?+
Communicate openly and honestly with your family about your concerns and feelings. Pray for discernment and seek wise counsel from trusted Christian friends or mentors. Remember that God can use even the most difficult circumstances to bring about growth and change in our lives.
