At heart (though it doesn't always show) I enjoy time by myself. So, for me internet services are totally up my alley. Least amount of human interaction, no pressure, no driving, etc. But if I did that I would be missing out on all the ways God can move & stretch me through human interaction and community. Love the thoughts. Keep 'em coming. I'm with you Dave. At heart (though it doesn't always show) I enjoy time by myself. So, for me internet services are totally up my alley.

While I would be quick to say that using the internet for services in times of emergency is good, I think there is a sense of community about physically being together that is missed if we have internet services alone.

Personally, I would rather stay home on Sunday, sleep in, and shuffle over to my Macbook Pro in my onesy pajamas and watch a service at my leisure. But that type of interaction with the church is not healthy. How can I care for my brother and take care of his needs (physically) until I step out and physically take action?

I'm interested to hear your final conclusion.
