No, sorry, but I don't agree with organised religion in general. I do believe in God and I do believe in creation, but I've had a bad time with religion so I just try to live my life as a good person, I also believe in karma, what goes around comes around, that sort of thing.

You know, I had a very bad time with religion when I was younger. So I gave it up.
Now I've got a personal relationship with Jesus and am not fettered by religion. I go to church to share my relationship not to perform rituals nor do I entertain a legalistic attitude

I go to church every Sunday that I can... not to offend u but I think it's kinda rude to God to only go on important holidays because it shows that u don't really care that much about God.

I am sorry to hear of your health issues. I can relate since I am fighting cancer - again.
The fellowship of your church is very important, I know. I hope you are being encouraged by your church family. I have put you on my prayer list.
Regarding hearing some good teachings, may I suggest you try my church's web site, http://www.lifepointcc.org. We 're non-denominational and our pastor's sermon can be listened to online from the site. I think you might get a real blessing from it.
Remember, all things are possible through Him. God Bless

I do go to church every Sunday. I even go on Wednesday night because I get to teach elementary school kids about Jesus through our puppet ministry.
Now, as to why I go to church EVERY Sunday. It is not a commandment that I do so but I go for the spiritual nourishment supplied by the teachings of our pastor as well as fellowship with my church family. Yes, (at least in my church)we are like a family. We share good and bad. We encourage and strengthen others while we ourselves are encouraged and strengthened. I know they have been indispensable during my latest challenge (the resurgence of cancer after a hiatus of 6 years).
