Attending every church service is crucial for personal spiritual growth, supporting our brethren, and serving as a witness to the world. Scriptures highlight our need for communal worship (Jude 20-21) and the significance of being present for one another (Acts 15:32-36). It reflects our submission to church leadership (Hebrews 13:17), fulfills God’s command not to forsake gathering together (Hebrews 10:24-25), and helps protect us from the temptations of the day (1 Peter 5:8-9). In challenging times, consistent attendance strengthens our faith and community.
