questions about 'going to church' model

i have a lot of questions about the 'going to church' model

  1. are we so busy that we sacrifice meaningful relationships?
  2. do we make it too complicated? this program, that program, this model of doing church, etc. we have 'worship leader' magazine to help us discover and learn all the ins and outs of singing songs together. hmmmmm, really?
  3. are we doing kids a favor my pulling them away from their parents and other mature adults?
  4. do kids ever get included in the larger group of believers when we age-segregate them?
  5. do we expect everyone to enjoy singing or use music as the only form of connecting with God? are there not many other ways to connect with God?
  6. how much effort and money do we put into events that never result in people connecting in relationships? how many events do we put on that simply draw other church people?
  7. do we intentionally help people connect relationally?
  8. why do we focus on sunday morning so much?
  9. how can a 'church' serve the community more?
