Why should I go to church?

Body
As a pastor, this is one of the questions I love to answer. Even before COVID people struggled with making it a consistent habit to go to church. Some of us wake up on Sunday morning still trying to decide whether or not we should get the kids ready for church or hit that snooze button one more time. Maybe we are asking ourselves the wrong question though. Maybe the question should be, why is it important that we go to church? If you have never understood why it is important to be plugged into a local church then I want to give you a couple of reasons of why being a part of a church is important for the believer.
