Asked to Move in Church?

I’m one of those people who tend to sit in or near the same place every week. In fact, in one church I attended, when I consciously decided to move, someone jokingly told me that I shouldn’t have moved, because they used to find their pew by seeing where I sat, and then sitting a certain number of rows behind that. When I moved, it upset their system!

That was a joke. But apparently this sort of thing happens in real life. This is one of those actions in church that is so grossly inhospitable that I have a hard time imagining people doing it, but, it appears they do.

I suspect we’ll have to give up those pews before we get to heaven …
