You’re in one of these churches.
You’re there on Sunday morning. You get there around 8:15 every week for coffee and donuts. Your kids go to Sunday school with friends they’ve known their whole lives. You eat your donut and then walk with your wife, Bibles in hand, to your Sunday school class. Everyone is dressed so nicely. Everyone is friendly.
You sit down in your class and the husband and wife in front of you turn around to greet you. They ask about that problem you were having at work. You look around the room and see people you’ve known for ten years, people who you’re comfortable with in the way you’re comfortable with family. You go to the morning service after and during the greeting time you casually walk around the room, shaking hands and making small talk with the same people who sit in the same pews every week.
