How the church shaped medieval life?

The church building was the center of community activity and many parts of daily life. Religious services were held several times a day. Town meetings, plays, and concerts were also held in churches. Merchants had shops around the square in front of the church. For many, the Catholic Church seemed to provide an answer to their suffering.
