To: Guenevere; illstillbe
Thank you for your posts yesterday...really, illstillbe, it was "just one of those days", and I hadn't slept well to boot so it was hard to face what had happened at church.

Add to that my ongoing inner debate and consternation over the direction so many churches are taking...

Guenevere, you are blessed to have such a faith-ful church.

In our church we needed to turn away from years and years of dysfunctial behavior, and a largely non-spiritual focus.

For awhile I felt I had a role in that...lately, it's just this: I'm not sure we've taken the right path.

the initial steps were necessary...but have we erred subsequently? I fear we have, and yet we do have strong Bible study groups....there's more accountability...so it's not totally bleak.

Bless you, I understand.
You were trying to effect change right where you were....

...but sometimes God calls us to go in another direction.

That's how we found the wonderful church we were in 14 years, and subsequently found another like it when we moved to the new home 30 miles away.
