The Advantages Of A Non Denominational Church

By Marissa Velazquez


A non denominational church can bring you a lot of benefits and if you have not had a chance to visit, then you have nothing to lose by trying this out. There are many different places with sectors that people are drawn to. There are reasons why some people will stick to these and others why they move around.

Often there can be a lot of inner war in the church and this can be a big problem for the congregation as well as for the elders. This starts out as something small and is just blown out of proportion. Certain places do things in one way and that is their belief. Often this takes over from everything else.

There are those that idolize and worship statues within their place of worship, and this defeats the purpose of what the actual purpose of Christianity is all about. This is not their fault because it has been taught to them by the church and by their parents. When they realize what they are doing, a light will go on and things in their lives will start to change. There is a difference between worshiping an idol and the one which Christians believe that is not the pagan God.

The problem is that they are so focused on what they have to do next that they are forgetting on what is most important. Traditions like communion and reciting the words set out by the priest come first. However, the message does not come first on the agenda. It becomes more like a ritual.

This is where it is more like a religion, which is done because it should be and not because one wants to go to church with a sense of passion. There is no spirituality involved in this type of service. If someone would to interrupt the service spontaneously with a word or saying something in tongues, members would become uncomfortable and start to complain.

One could say that there is a greater sense of warmth in a non denominational church. They embrace everyone, and they would accommodate anyone who wants to say something. There is no routine and this is what people like about this kind of church. It is nice going there not knowing who is going to speak or what songs you are going to sing. Sometimes you may have communions, but this is not always a done thing.

There is less war at these churches because they are usually more organized. The fact that there no traditions here creates a better atmosphere amongst members because there are no complaints from the congregation saying they should be doing things in a particular way. These places of worship are normally bigger. There are a lot of events and groups that are organized on a regular basis for the congregation to get involved in. This encourages more Christian interaction, which is a good thing.

A non denominational church is usually bigger in structure and is always organizing events and groups to make members join in. This is important because one needs to get involved. Joining a group can enable you to interact with other Christians and meet other people who have the same sort of beliefs as yourself.
