Tom, it's encouraging to hear that you have a good church to attend, with elders in place and sermons that uplift you. I agree—it can be difficult to find a church that checks every box. Like you, my children are grown and have families of their own, so I understand the importance of prioritizing what truly matters. While there may be certain aspects we don't fully agree with, the presence of a plurality of elders and a strong, meaningful message would certainly inspire me to attend. If I had small children, I would keep them with me during the service.
