The COVID-19 Test: Church or God?: Religion or Relationship?

Written by Rosemarie Downer, Ph.D.

Narrated by Lauren Pedersen

To Whom Are You Espoused, Church or God?

Here is a question for all Christians, all followers of Christ — Church or God? This question is worth pondering and it deserves an honest answer that can only be found after prayerful introspection. To most Christians, church is a major part of our lives, and it should be. But how does church life, for example, ministry, religious customs, relationships, and church events rank with your relationship with God? To what degree have these and anything else related to church define the depth and vibrancy of your relationship with God? Some Christians cannot imagine life without church. Some have supplanted personal, private spiritual development activities with church. Others have minimized the importance of church in their lives. You may be getting a glimpse into your answer to this very important question if you fall in any of these categories, but there is much more that must be taken into consideration before responding.

While fully acknowledging the God-ordained institution called church, The COVID-19 Test: Church or God? will take you through an in-depth discourse of this question. This book details how we, God’s beloved children, often unknowingly choose idols that pose as good things over our God who is superior.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a test of our allegiance to the God we serve. Rosemarie Downer will engage you in a thought-provoking discussion of why some lost connection with God or declined spiritually during the COVID-19 restriction on congregate church gatherings. She will engage you in addressing this question – How does your relationship with God before and after the COVID-19 lockdown compare?
