"Isolation from the Church is Dangerous"

Here is a good article by Josh Buice on the dangers of becoming isolated from your church family. I know (most) of you reading this are involved in a local church and see it important. But, as he points out, we often don't go looking to isolate ourselves. It can often happen slowly, over time.

Here is one good quote,

We must learn to see the church as a blessing from God rather than an inconvenience.  We must never look at the church as a violation to our spiritual privacy fence.  We were never called to walk the journey of the Christian life alone.  Surround yourself with gospel preaching, gospel singing, and gospel friends who will be honest with you.  When the church is honest with you, receive it.  Take heed so that you will not fall (1 Cor. 10:12).  We all need the church.
