Abstract
A sermon by Edward Hitchcock discussing the importance of gathering together socially for religious events beyond just the Sabbath. Hitchcock provides examples from scripture that he believes supports the idea that Christians are expected to participate in religious gatherings during the week, then lists some arguments commonly given against this idea, refuting each one. He ends with some inferences that can be drawn from the discussion of this topic, such as that religion tends to decline in the church because people think if they go to weekly services they do not need to attend to religion in other ways and the reasons why weekday religious meetings often lead to conversions. Hebrew 10:25 is quoted. Hitchcock has noted the dates and locations where he delivered this sermon on the first page.
