The story goes like this - A man once called a pastor to say he wanted to join the church. But he went on to explain that he did not want to worship every week, study the Bible, visit the sick, witness to non-Christians, or serve as a leader or teacher.
The pastor commended him for his desire to join, but told him the church he sought was located in another section of town. The man took the directions and hung up.
When he arrived at the church, the man came face to face with the logical result of his own apathetic attitude. There stood before him, an abandoned church building, dilapidated and ready for demolition.
Hmmmmmm........makes ya think, don't it!?!?! See ya Sunday at church!!
