MCDONALD'S

Eating a meal at McDonald's while feeling spiritually satisfied — Receiving spiritual nourishment and biblical teachings from sources outside your local church community, such as other congregations, online ministries, or educational institutions

Ordering food at McDonald's counter from an unfamiliar worker — Seeking spiritual guidance and doctrine from teachers or sources not connected to your home congregation

Sitting alone in McDonald's eating while others worship elsewhere — Obtaining spiritual food independently through alternative sources rather than corporate church teaching and preparation

McDonald's restaurant appearing larger or more prominent than your church building — Relying more heavily on external spiritual sources and teachings than on your local congregation's doctrine and ministry

Dreaming of McDonald's as a source of spiritual food distinct from your local church — Obtaining biblical teachings and doctrines through alternative means beyond your congregation's prepared ministry, including other churches, internet resources, or Bible colleges rather than what has been specifically prepared and presented within your local assembly
