Lessons in Faith - 2 ----------------

     "Mom, why do we have go to church?" 
     "We go to church to pray and worship God!" 
     "But we can do that at home. I say my prayers before I go to 
bed, and Dad thanks God for food before supper." 
     "At church we have fellowship with other people who ?believe 
in God." 
     "What is 'fellowship'?" 
     "Fellowship is caring about other believers and sharing news 
about what God has done." 
     "Is that like when I told my friend about Jesus?" 
     "Not quite, ?that is called witnessing. ?Fellowship is ?more 
like ?going to a party where everyone knows your name, ??everyone 
believes ?in God and his son Jesus, ?and everyone is always ready 
and ?happy to help you in any way. ?Everyone cares about what ?is 
happening ?in your life, ?and is ready to listen if you ?need ?to 
talk, ??and ready to pray with you about your or ?someone ?else's 
needs." 
     "That ?sounds like the Bible study you have here on Tuesdays 
with all those ladies!" 
     "That's right! ?We all share God in common, ?and are ?always 
ready to share him and what he has done!" 
     "My teacher in Sunday School always asks 'What did God do in 
your ?life this past week?' ?Once Joey said that God gave him ?an 
'A' on his math quiz!" 
     "Your Sunday School class is a fellowship!" 
     "Mom, is fellowshiping important?" 
     "Yes. ?Without fellowship, ?a ?believer might start to ?feel 
alone in the world. ?Believers need to share, to know that God is 
working in our, and other people's lives." 
     "Mom, ??I ??know it's Friday, ?but could we go to church ?to 
fellowship now?"
