“The difference between being a church attender and a church member is commitment. Attenders are spectators from the sidelines; members get involved in the ministry.

They are like couples who want to live together without committing to a marriage.”

You need the help of other people. Some temptations are only overcome with the help of a partner who prays for you, encourages you, and holds you accountable.”
