One thing that I HATE is walking into a service and the whole place sounds and looks like a convention. Laughing, kids running around, talking about any and everything!

Sometime walk in your service and pretend you know no one and are a visitor and see how YOU would feel.
So do you think the sanctuary should be just that, a sanctuary, and all the fellowship between the saints (chitchat) should be done outside the sanctuary?
