Puritan Board Freshman
My question centers on the question: do I violate the promise to "Do you promise to support the Church in its worship and work to the best of your ability?" if I decide to attend other church's worship service on some occasions?
Am I "church shopping" after making promise to my church, by visiting and worshipping at other churches maybe 60-70% of my Sundays? I plan on still supporting my church financially and in the other ministries such as small group, ESL, and Men breakfast.
The details are that I joined this small church about 3 years ago. I've grown quiet a bit a bit, in both knowledge and knowing God, there, having gotten to know the pastor, the people, and the ministries. I been dedicated to this church pretty much every Sunday. But the people in there, do not satisfy my fellowship needs. I'm a single guy, and there are almost nobody in my life stage. While I am fed by the gospel and proper teaching, I miss the fellowship support from peers in my age and being able share the struggles I have.
My hope is that in the new year, I want to visit these other churches which I know my friends go to. I'm dedicated to my church, and I feel convicted for thinking about going to the other churches which support my fellowship needs.
