Is God’s community worth investing in? The church used to be a place where we received cultural and social benefits, a place where we “found our people” and grew in our relationship with our surrounding community. But as culture has rapidly secularized and been inundated with technology, we don’t need the church for a good social life or even for spiritual content. The early followers of Jesus seemed to give the church their top priority, how did they do it and why? Strangely enough, the answers for why we should come back to church and give the church a priority in our life is not just found in the New Testament, but in a minor prophetic book called Haggai.
