Is it time to find a church?

I read this recently: "We are all overworked. And overstressed, not well supported, living isolated lives in our homes". It got me thinking: if that is true is it time to find a church? Visiting a church building might provide some sense of peace, quiet, awe. But more than that churches are communities help us de-stress. Faith in God helps us de-stress. Several academic studies have found that people who attend church live longer and are happier. https://bit.ly/3v5ndoK Church communities provide good support. Friends are made, relationships developed, needs shared and help provided. Being in a church family means not living an isolated life. There is always something going on: Sundays, midweek, for men, women, parents, young people. There is always someone to talk to, a friend who listens, who understands. So perhaps it's time...time to find a church near you...
