Healing Place?


I've watched a HPC service online, it's an hour and half roughly.

This sounds like a Pentecostal, Mormon or Orthodox Jewish service

it became an entertainment center when it left the true faith of christian catholicism. You want God, the sacraments, and actual liturgy? come on home

Do they hold you at gunpoint or have a couple of goons knock you down and the go through your wallet?

I usually give money voluntarily and wouldn't attend a church that confiscated money from me weekly, even if it is only $20. I'm assumeing you're not titihing because I know the OT ain't got no 200/week baws on here.


As for services, if you're getting nothing out of it then the length probably won't matter, find another church.

9:30-1 seems excessively long though.

Part of setting the right tone/ambiance for worship. If it's turning into a performance each week, then someone has lost sight of the purpose.

If a church service lasts longer than 90 minutes you are going to the wrong church.

Shouldn't be about the money. Assuming you're a bible reader, its tithing which is only a 10th of what you make to go to the lords house and to help out among the community.

Depends, but typically lasts about three hours, from noon to just after 3pm every sunday. I'm not able to make it there most of the time, but thankfully it's always televised.

just to be clear, not everyone who doesn't attend church is an atheist neck beard. A lot of us just believe that organized religion is not the answer to attaining spirituality.

What ever God is, can be found outside of church

The service I go to starts at 11:30 and I'm out the door at 12:45 12:50. But we got a 10:00 service that ends at 11:05



The church I grew up in would start at 11 and last so long that they would serve dinner plates afterwards I'm talking legit 4'30-5pm
