Are Christians only called to attend church?
Attendance is the gathering point, not the calling. Believers are ambassadors — sent to represent the kingdom among neighbors.
Cross-carrying, disciple-making, and neighbor-love are the job description, not the advanced course.
Trusting God’s protection is what frees you to step outside comfort in service to others. The promise is not a reason to stay safe.
A church that settles only for comfort does not reach very far. Whether comfort-culture is mainly the flesh or also enemy pressure is still an open question. The calling itself is not.
