Many in America and indeed around the world attend church to learn about God, to learn about ourselves and to connect with God and others.
Along with that is a general belief that the church will be spiritually safe.
After all, the best source of knowledge about God comes from His self-revelation which is contained in His inspired, inerrant word, the Bible.
Many things can be confusing when trying to figure out the Bible on your own.
Pastors and church leaders are looked to and relied on to care.
