How long church supposed to last

[jay83]

In the south?

In a southern Baptist black church?

The answer to this thread is “for as long as it takes”

“You will not rush God” !!

It's funny I run across this thread. My girl just recently convinced me to start going to church with her every Sunday. But yo........the shyt is a KOREAN church


And we both Panamanian, got me looking CRAZY. I hadn't been to church in YEARS so I got no idea what to do. Just standing there with my arms folded across my lap nodding every once in a while. It's a Catholic communion so luckily it's only an hour max, but LAWD I will be feeling awkward as hell. When you walk in its
literally swole ass Korean Jesus figures and statues

Man just a quick story.

I was dating this woman who was really into the church so I had to go every Sunday. One Sunday the pastor was legit holding us hostage until he got 5 people to go up during the alter call. After his usual cadence he started going on rants, then into songs, then more rants and made it clear he wasn't happy about the tithes and he knows more people out there are ready to give themselves to the lord. After about 25 minutes of this I made up my mind to break up with that woman and go up and answer the alter call because I was ready to go home and these nikkas would NEVER see me again anyway. As I was standing up another woman with 2 toddlers in her arms ran up and I quickly sat back down. Ole girl was excited about me "almost taking the leap" the entire car ride back to my place. I had my tongue deep in that p*ssy that night brehs.

I still broke up with her before that next Sunday.

That's not true at all.

We already said it depends: black Catholics tend to take longer than the yt ones (no idea about Spanish Mass) IME. Any hymns being sung and not just read will take longer. Extra sacraments and readings automatically add time on. Long-winded priest? You're finna sit longer. Vigil Mass for a holiday? Easily an extra hour, hour and a half beyond normal duration.

OK, true indeed, Easter, tack on 20 more minutes, the catholic church I go to down the street from me is multicultural soooooo

When you think the preacher talking to you and he keep going on and on because you don’t get what part of your life you fukking up in


I was happy before I came in here!!


I’m too empathetic for southern Baptist sermons

When I used to attend/believe (rip Rev Christian) there was one (Northern) Baptist service I enjoyed, I can’t recall a lick of what he would speak on but I was always in pure tears

Good ol Christian guilt, yass yell at me

Y’all nikkas got it good in the ADD era.

what you know about being 10 years old having to sit through a 4 hr service all because you “look” too big to go to the kids church? Can’t even fall asleep cuz ya mama will pop you.

Nah fukk that I’m calling my mom tomorrow cuz she gotta explain why she had me doing that dumb shyt. My nephews got it good. They be in church on their tablets, sleep, you name it.

Forreal. My parents used to be heavy in the church back in the day. You couldn't chew gum, yawn or fall asleep. Thinking about it now that shyt was brainwashing. Kids that age didn't understand anything about worshipping a zombie and eating his flesh and blood (bread and wine) making you a better person and guaranteed to go to heaven after you die. 4-5 hours of that shyt nah man.

Real talk, being overtly strict on Sunday Service from previous generations, is why organized religion is disappearing on the wayside, in every demographic. Even black women are attending services less and less, and go to they Sunday Funday brunches w/ bottomless mimosas instead
