Why can't our church be full?

As we all prepare for worship Sunday, here is something chew on for a while.  Why can't our church be full?  Before you start coming up with different reasons why it's not, stop to consider what God desires.

Sunday we will start a series of studies on "10 Steps To Following God's Direction".  God promised Abraham a massive piece of land for the nation Israel.  After Moses passed away, Joshua received that same promise.  Step 1 - We must "Realize the Promise to Expand our Borders."  Step 2 - That promise is only filled when we "Remain Faithful".

Let me ask the question again.  Why can't our church be full?  God's desire is for it to be full.  So what we might need to do is examine our life to see if we are remaining faithful.  Is it possible that the reason our church is not full is that we don't invite people to meet Holy God?

The next time you begin complaining that the numbers in church were low, could be your own doings?

Chew on that for a while.
