Reason #21 why going to church this Sunday is the best plan: BECAUSE SOMEONE INVITED YOU… AND YOU WANT TO GO ANYWAY.  When I was 14 years old I got invited to church for the first time.  I was a bit unsure at first, but I was also curious.  When I went, I was mildly surprised to find a bunch of kids that were fun to be with and were genuinely nice.  I also quickly learned that they put a lot of thought into what they were thinking and doing.  They really loved God and were striving to work out their faith in a heartfelt way.  Looking back, I’m so glad that someone invited me to come!  Maybe someone has invited you to go to church recently and you’ve put it off.  You know, you should just go and discover.  In the Bible, the person who was famous for inviting someone was Andrew.  It says in John 1:40-42, “Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus.  The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus.”  We get really busy in our American culture.  Sometimes we get so busy we don’t have time for God.  Now is a really good time to change that.  Stop saying YES to the busyness and NO to God.  Go with a friend to church… OR, if no one has invited you recently, go make a NEW friend this Sunday.
