Going further, I like reminding disciples that Church attendance is the first spiritual discipline in a believer's life. If you stay home on Sunday, you start to drift away from Bible reading, prayer, serving, and all other disciple activities. Church attendance and engagement begin and move us forward in discipleship. It's more than just something Christians do.
Don't forget that beyond shutins there are families with disabled children that find in person services difficult to attend. Most churches do not have the facilities or support for those with intellectual disabilities. Online gives these families the option to view services.
I have been monitoring our online live numbers and they are very small. I think we are fooling ourselves that online services are having much of an impact at all. I'm not advocating discontinuing but let's stop spending money on it and doing worship for the camera as if that should control how we do Sunday mornings.

I agree, Tim, and I believe many others are coming to the similar conclusions.
