Life gives us a smorgasbord of choices. We have 160 channels on TV, unlimited books and magazines to read and thousands of choices for tonight's dinner. All this is wonderful and a perk of living in the greatest nation on earth. But we seem to be expected to attend only one church at a time. Is this scriptural or cultural? If we are worshipping God and serving in both church's, does it matter?
No church is perfect and no church can meet the needs of each member but let's suppose Church A has a great Pastor that really can strike a chord with you when it comes to understanding and following the Gospel. He makes it come alive. Church B has classes and programs designed to promote spiritual growth that church A doesn't. Is it wrong to attend both (if 2 services a week don't bother you)? What about attending a small group from each church?
If the church's are the same theologically is there a problem with splitting your allegiance? Or are we commanded to make one church our home church even if it doesn't fill some of our needs? In the end aren't they all God's church and would He really care where or how many we attend as long as we are doing His will?
