Sure that is a typical response! Join and see what happens. You can always drop out if it isn’t fun! A few more goats among the sheep.
your point is well taken, thank you.
I may not have expressed my idea clearly ...
but anyway, if someone tries the Church out...there’s a decent chance they’ll find it helps them, is useful to them, has meaning for them, whatever.. and their faith can then grow.
or something like that.
not everyone who joins is already a fully=formed, completely committed believer.
the idea I was trying to express was, they should at least be invited to come in the door and give it a test ride, if you will....
there’s plenty of good stuff, good news if I may use that term, inside the church door.
we just have to find more ways of getting more unchurched people into the door
methinks, anyway.
Thanks very much for your helpful comment.
