Today’s Christian churches are full of free riders. In general, little is required of modern Christians, and all aspects of the Christian lifestyle have become optional. Aside from a few small gestures of faith, Christians are indistinguishable from non-Christians. They may receive their sacraments and associate with other Christians, but their outlook and behavior are much more defined by their environment than their religious beliefs. Even when their churches are desecrated, their brothers and sisters in Christ are martyred, or the key tenets of their faith are violated, most Christians tend to carry on as before, never realizing the damage that their complacency does to their religion."
This is one of the main reasons that I started attending the church in my town. It seemed like the majority of the interactions I had with people that seemed to be at least attempting emulate Christ like behavior. The people who seemed the most patient and the most giving towards their fellow man while leading an intentionally structured life mostly seemed to be active church goers.
