About these 2-4 hour services
I can't attend to ANYTHING more than an hour. Most of us can't. I have no problem dedicating more than an hour to church/God, but not at the same time. I'm both in a community group and in a college ministry at my current church. With that I spend the same amount of time (4 or more hours) as I did at my last church, it's just spread out.
I started going to my current church when I was almost 18 (3 years ago). I learned MUCH MUCH more in these last three years at this church, than I did in 17 years at my old one.
Also, just because the service is long it does not mean that you will always get more out of it. Both churches I attended did the same amount of things (i.e. songs, sermon), it's just that my old church fooled around a lot. For example, they took about a HOUR to make announcements, usually the same ones.
