15 Good Reasons Not to Go to Church15 Good Reasons Not to Go to Church and One Great Reason You Should
By Michael J. Insalaco (VMI Publishers, 2009)

“If God does want to touch your life through a church family—and I guarantee you He does—there is one sure-fire way to not receive that touch: Simply stay away from church, the imperfect people there and the teaching of the Bible. You can keep on trying all the other things you’ve been trying—all to no avail. God will keep on grieving like the loving father He is—a father who desires to help a suffering child, even the one who isn’t interested in His help.” –Michael J. Insalaco, from the book
