I’ve driven past many churches that have a sign out front promoting the fact they dress casually. That is the wrong basis for promoting a church and it is the wrong basis for choosing a church because it puts the focus on people instead of on God. It makes the comfort of people more important than serving God. Exodus 32 illustrates a different mindset. When the Israelites worshipped the golden calf, Yahweh told Moses He was going to destroy them. Moses’ first impulse was to think about how that would affect Yahweh’s reputation. In other words, Yahweh’s reputation was the main consideration, not the lives of the Israelites. Likewise, when we think about promoting and choosing a church, God should be the top priority, not our physical comfort. Learn more:
