My gift is to lead praise and worship with my music ministry. However, some churches require me to be a member to participate. Why do I need a piece of paper to serve God? Surely the fact that I am a part of the church makes me a member. Is a membership certificate going to make me more committed to God than I already am? Funny that one doesn’t have to be a member of the church to give your tithes and offerings but yet to serve and exercise your gift in church one will need a membership certificate.

One pastor said that in his church anybody can take communion…children, visitors, anyone. I don’t think that’s how it is supposed to be.  2 – I visited a church and at the end of the service they gave me the bread and the wine (juice) to do it at home. They didn’t even know if I was converted to Christ.  Is that right?  3 – If a couple is not married but have accepted Jesus as savior, can they take the Lord’s Communion or must they get married first before doing Communion?

I have a family member that goes to a Church of Christ church. She said the Bible says to only go to that church, not a Baptist, Methodist, etc. Also, not to have instruments such as a piano. If this is true, are there scriptures in the Bible to verify this? What is your take on why they believe on going to only a Church of Christ denomination?

Do you know if being a church leader (pastor, deacon, elder, group leader) is a calling or a career choice? Should someone take on these positions because they are told they should by others (using Hebrews 5:12) or because they feel called by God? Should every believer want to or aim for these positions even if they don’t feel called by God?
