The Christian Ear is a forum for discussing and listening to the voice of today's church. The Lord spoke to churches,“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” Rev 2&3

Holding Down the Fort
There are some of us who are always at church on Sunday mornings. We
seldom take vacations and we make every effort to schedule out of town
activities so they don’t coincide with church. Then there are those members who
are sporadic in attendance and they seem to just drop-in every once in awhile to
say hello and then you won’t see them again for another month. I have to tell
you that it does occasionally yank my chain. However, I recently did an interview
with a woman who is out of town a lot because of business travel. Donna said, “It’s such a blessing to be in a church
where we take to heart the meaning of being a church family. God keeps me
grounded here even when I’m out of town and can’t be here each week.” OK,
so holding down the fort is a blessing to others…I can live with that.

Gail;
-----What flusters me most about church is that it is the place we gather to worship. That’s far short of what the church is portrayed to be in the Bible. There it is the believers come together, and they also worship. It is where support for every area of life is exchanged. The weak and the strong were both there in need of each other.
Love you all,
Steve Corey
