The book of Acts presents a beautiful picture of early Christian believers and their natural desire to be together.  The model then was clearly not just a Sunday morning assembly but a model of assembly together, focusing on each others needs and praising God as one.

All the believers were together and had everything in common.  Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need.  Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. (Acts 2:44-47 NIV)

I attended a small town congregation on Sunday and there was a good 20 feet between groupings of family and friends during worship, not as I imagine when reading Acts.  If you are a new Christian, seek out a church family who love one another and worship as one every chance they get.  If you are part of a congregation that on Sunday mornings resembles a doctor’s office waiting room during flu season, don’t leave – be the one to bring people together.   A healthy Christian community focuses on assembling together not just on the assembly.
