On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there.
- Acts16:13 (NIV)
Say that you want to watch your local high school football team play against the rival team.
Most high school games are not broadcast on television like college or pro-ball, so you go to the place where the game is being played.
Maybe you have heard about a friend who is in a band and writes their own music, and you want to hear them play, but they aren’t published and being played on any mainstream media, so you go to the venue where the band is playing.
Perhaps you have heard about a man that changed everything, but it was over 2000 years ago so you can’t see him in person.
You go to the place where people are going to be talking about that man.
It might not be a church, because a lot of people don’t care for organized religion.
They might be meeting in someone’s home, or in a park, or a restaurant.
If you want to hear the word of God, go where it is being taught.
If you want to share the word of God, go where people may listen.
You don’t know, there might be someone there whose life you change.
