Churches preach what people believe

A brief thought from November 15th, 2009.

Churches preach what people believe. I used to think that people believed what the church preached, but it’s actually the other way around. It’s much more likely that someone will choose a church that matches their beliefs than it is for a person to change their beliefs to match what a particular church preaches. Not that the latter can’t or doesn’t happen, just that most people prefer to change something else rather than change themselves.
