If your question is "What will be different after this?" we hope and pray that we will be different, with a vision of God and his gospel. There's a personal transformation that takes place as we understand what church is and our part in it.

We are tempted to believe that the gospel is simply something we believe—we go through the motions and we have low expectations of an encounter with the living Lord. This is one of the reasons Paul begins the book of Galations in such forthright terms.
