CAN’T STAND CHRISTIANS

On a regular Sunday morning, most people would rather go to the beach, enjoy some family time, or even spend an extra few hours in bed instead of going to church… But for some reason, not on Easter Sunday.

Typically, Easter and Christmas are the highest attended times where the average “unchurched” and “irreligious” person attends church.  But why? What is it about Easter and Christmas that draws people to church? Is it a desire for something more? Is it Christians? Is it Jesus?

In fact, in one way or another haven’t you heard people say “I’m spiritual, but not really into religion.” Or, “I Like Jesus… but can’t stand Christians.” Have you ever felt this way?

I know I have! And chances are that someone or something claiming to be “Christian” has probably given you and others a reason to keep their distance from church. Perhaps a “hypocrite Christ-follower” tainted the idea of Jesus and even more from religion, especially with all the ” record of do’s and don’ts”. But deep inside, I hope you know Jesus is way more than what any human can ever reflect! (Because after all, we are all sinners.)

For this very reason, Christ Journey Church (my church) is launching a challenging three-week series that will help tackle some of the most common barriers that keep people away from “Christians and Christianity.”

We did our research, and here’s what we found:


So, what’s your take on Christians? Will you be attending an Easter service? Why or why not?

No matter who you are or what you believe in, you’re invited to join the conversation this Easter weekend.  Join live at our Miami locations or online at ChristJourney.tv, you can tune-in from anywhere around the world. Check it out and let me know what you think… Happy Easter!
