place in the kingdom

a bit of a grand title / trying to address a (not particularly) simple choice / which church do I attend?

when one's wife has decided to start attending a different church / should one follow her / if one's daughter still attends the place where we (all) used to go / except that one's son hasn't attended church in years ...

the world (in this country) has changed / many people do other things on a Sunday morning / they even wash their cars (for some reason, an early memory of mine is of our minister berating his congregation / how awful, that people would spend Sunday morning washing their cars, instead of coming to church / his audience, presumably, agreeing with him) / it is more difficult, nowadays / pressure of time / both parents working / the case for spending Sunday morning worshipping God / is no longer self evident ...

and if the churches are competing / not easy for an individual ...
