Thank you. Lots to think about in that, but as a Kiwi I'd love to hear more about what you've heard Christians saying about the importance of the church here. I'm always interested in what 'outsiders' see in my community - it's a great way to expose blind spots.

I'm someone who is concerned how much time churches often take up - so much time and energy goes into running a Sunday service, and then there's so much expectation to go to a home group and various social events, and I am concerned that there's no time/energy left to have my neighbours over for dinner or to go out with my non-Christian friends.

Is that the kind of concern you're critiquing? If so, I'd be really grateful if you could expand on the issues you see with it. Thank you :-)
