Skipping church. (The definitive rules)

I think we all need this wisdom.

I want to be honest with you.

Sometimes I exaggerate the illnesses of my children so that we can’t attend church. There I said it. I feel better. Andy Stanley, doesn’t read this site so I’m OK. He’ll never know.

But sometimes, I do the exact opposite and try to heal my kids of any Sunday morning sickness they have so that we can make sure not to miss church.

How do I decide which step to take when I see a runny nose? Much like Roxette, I listen to my heart. That doesn’t work all the time though so I thought it might be helpful if I wrote the definitive rules when it comes to skipping church. Feel free to forward these to your pastor or print them in the bulletin for your ministers.
