For Churchgoers Only!
I just want to know if there are some people out there that feel the same as I do. If you don't go to church on Sunday do you get the guilts. I certainly do. I read the bible daily, but if for some reason I don't go to church Boy!!! do I ever feel bad about it!

Going to church is certainly important. It is a place for fellowship, learning, and praise that we can't get just from our daily quiet times or Bible reading.
That, of course, is not to say that "You, as a Christian better go to church...OR ELSE" No way!
I agree with ilovetrees. there are circumstances in which you shouldn't feel guilty for not going to church. But if it's just because you didn't feel like, you probably SHOULD feel bad. Trust me, I've done it and, like you said, it did NOT feel good!
When i don't go to Church because i'm sick i don't feel guilty.. but if i don't go because i don't feel like it (which is rarely) i do feel reaaly bad on the inside..
But remember that God always forgives!
Amen to that!

Well... If you're going to church and you know that you aren't going to be focused and your heart won't be 100% in it then it is better not to go. It's kind of like an insult to God to only give him a portion of your attention.

If I don't go just because I'm lazy, I do get the guilts. However, if something comes up unexpectedly that I can't avoid or help, then no.
