Being Comfortable While Worshiping
Going to church and sitting in church pews has become a tradition in the United States. Because religion is so important to Americans it would make sense that building churches in the United States is fairly common. Going to church has also been a way for families to get together and spend time together. Sitting in church pews together can bring a religious family together and make them comfortable while celebrating their faith.
Sitting on church furniture is part of the experience of going to church in the first place. Sitting and standing at different points in a Christian service is part of how the service goes. Having good church pews is important for a parrish so that people who want to worship have the opportunity to do so in a comfortable environment.
According to Gallup forty percent of Americans, nationwide, are extremely religious. That fact is based on the general statement that religion is an important part of their daily life and that they attend religious services weekly or semi weekly. Since almost half of Americans attend church on a semi regular basis, having church pews is a very important factor when setting up a house of worship.
People in the beginning of time were not looking for church pews for sale. Worshippers dating back to the earliest centuries are said to have worshiped secretly in their own homes, often in secret. We have come a long way with religion since the first few centuries. Church steeples and church pews have made churches more comfortable for worshipers and more people have since joined the different Christian religions.
During a church service it has been part of a long tradition that church goers sit, stand and kneel when appropriate in a church service. This is part of tradition that complies with the Bible and which parts of it are portrayed during a church service.
