As I grow older as a Christian, whAt matters more to me is hearing what God is speaking to me more than the sermon itself. In church, That can Happen during the time of corporate worship, that can hAppen during prayer and more often than not, God speaks to me during the sermon. The sermon itself and the message carried across matters less than the moments in between sentences, during the time when there are pauses and the random insights that come. I think God needs those pockets of time to speak to us. Or else, He will have to give us a shove to get our attention.
To me, listening to the sermon and gathering more biblical knowledge would just mean that church is just a school where learning takes place intellectually. What is more important are those moments when I am inspired to change my life in a better way. And these changes are going to be more permanent because they are induced by the Holy Spirit who changes us from within.
