Sometimes they even know who the pastor is and are familiar with him. Imagine that!
Nitpickiness has its place, but it's not here, it seems.

Again, what he said was "the church I attend." Present tense verb.
Look, I will readily admit that I can nitpick the day away for sport. That's not what I was trying to do here. Here, I was remembering a conversation he and I had that suggested at least somewhat regular church attendance. That seemed worth bringing up since he was saying he's only been to church a couple of times to counter Dr.Phil's response ("Hello contradiction.") to his posts. That is all.

She asked why you keep putting an apostrophe -- which either indicates omitted letters of a word or indicates a possessive -- in "home's." The word is "homes."
