Church's Chicken???

Today my 3rd graders were learning how to make the word church plural. Usually as they are learning how to use words, I will attempt to explain the definition. So thinking that most of them would know what church was, I posed the question, "What is church?" The reply I heard amongst them was, "Chicken, Pollo!" I was a bit confused for a moment. Then I heard one child say, "Church's Chicken!" I suddenly realized that the word church to these 3rd graders meant a place where they would go and buy chicken with their family. I just started laughing. I then proceeded to draw a picture of a church building and told them the Spanish word for church. Once they put 2 and 2 together, they were really baffled that a resturant would be called Pollo de Iglesia, Chicken of Church. We all had a good laugh.
This caused me to think of how people think of different words. When I think of church, I think of the people of God, the encouragement, the fellowship, the love of God, the way God works today, and the worship that we share together. But to many people the word church just means a building that people go to practice religion. I am sure even as these children learned that the translation for church is iglesia, many of them did not know what church really is. How many people do I pass on a daily basis that have a misconception of the word church? They might not think of it as Church's Chicken, but they really don't know the love, worship, teaching, and fellowship that takes place amongst the people of God. I want to be a persosn who demonstrates what a true church is.
