Question: What most helps you to grow spiritually?
26% - Personal Bible studyNot sure of my final thoughts on this, but 3 things spring to mind.
25% - Times of solitude with God
18% - Group Bible study
12% - Reading Christian books/articles
7% - One-on-one discipleship (mentoring)
6% - Going to church
1. We work really hard at item 6 on that list, yet it doesn't seem to really help people. What would happen if we channelled some of that time and energy towards more effective activities.
2. Did you notice that all the survey options are sedentary and in-house. Why aren't there options like: "Loving my neighbour", "Helping the poor", "Talking about God with non-church people" or "Volunteering for a cause I believe in"?
3. Is the sad answer to 2 that, as a church, these things are just not on our radar?
What do you reckon?
