I think, so far, we’re hitting the nail squarely on its proverbial head (with the comments, that is). Relationships is the one thing churches have been doing just fine without, up to recently, though it’s the most central to what defines the church. It’s also the only thing that can’t be replaced by DVR, Internet, sattelite, etc.

I agree with Sheryl the person to person and person to the Godhead at the worship hour is important and can get lost with cyber worship. Gathering the body together that can support and help each other is important. Improvement in reverent worship is what is needed.

We’ll just whisper quietly so the DVR can’t hear…yes, relationships and for me, mission, are the important things in the community of faith. How can these be maintained without an hour of getting together on Sunday mornings? I guess the same way that the DVR frees us up to pursue other things during “prime-time.”

Maybe this is just a woman’s perspective, but a big part of church for me is the relationships with other people that I form. That is something my DVR can’t offer- but don’t tell it I said that, I’d hate to offend my DVR.
