Question

"church hop"?
i have been attending this one church since 4th grade (im now in 10th grade) minus about 3 years (5,6, and 7 grade). but now recently i went to another church that a friend invited me to, and i have been going about 2 moths. now my boyfriend goes to church as often as he can so i go with him. i have been to to others that i really like. and i want to go to church and learn more every day. i am still loyal to my first church (i am getting baptized there this weekend) but i still want to go to others. infact i dont get to youth group this week cuz im out of town and i feel like im in a funk cuz im not spending time at chucrch

im not doing it to look for a new church, i am doing it to go to more church, for example i go to one on sundays and tuesdays, one on thursday, i found another for sunday night (ive only been once, but im deff going again) and one on wednesdays that i have only been once to, but i did enjoy it. i want to find a church for mondays fridays and saturdays too.

Answer 1

you can never get to much god in your life and noit isn't wrong to go to more than one church and don let anyone tell you different. I go to a chatolic and a christina church because i don't agree completely in the way they both are ran and rlues and regulations. but i enjoy the differences in the way the bible is read between the two and sometimes i understand more for one than the other.

Answer 2

I was raised Jewish, but when I was young I was invited by all my Christian friends to go to church with them. We were encouraged by our parents and even our religious leaders to do this, to see what and how others believed. Consequently I know almost more about Christianity than I do about Judaism.

(Some) Christians like to think there is only one way to worship, one truth, one church, one view on every issue. Judaism is just the opposite, it encourages asking questions, considering and discussing alternate views, etc. I found church-hopping to be very broadening and edifying. I found it fascinating to see what thinks people agreed on and what they disagreed on.

If the consideration of multiple viewpoints bothers you, as it does some people, then I'd say don't do it. But if it doesn't bother you, then you will learn more about Christianity and your own feelings. I think that's a good thing! 8^)

Answer 3

Sure, that's how I found the greatest church in the world! It's not the Church that's important but the church (the body of Christ or believers). See our website at www.nhdh.org. Good resources.

Answer 4

It is OK to "church hop". Sometimes people need that time to find a home. Once you find where you feel you should be, you should commit to that Church, supporting it and its ministries.
