People who have never attended church argue that the church is irrelevant. People that have a bad experience at a church, swear to never return. Those who attend often lack confidence in it as a place they would want to invite people too. 

It’s a fair question to ask – what is the point/the purpose of the church? Why should we gather with others when we watch at home? What compelled Jesus to so love the church that He gave Himself for it and will one day return to purify it as the bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:25-27). Regardless of what you and I might think clearly the church is very precious to Jesus and He sees the point of it and has set its purpose.
