Church Hopping!
Wow! I never figured church hopping would be this hard! Since we've moved down here, my mom, dad and I have been trying to find a good, biblically sound church to go to. We have gone to three churches now and so far, we've been unsure about all of them. We all miss Webster so much and it's hard for us to not compare other churches to webster. BUT with that said, we still have open hearts to finding the right church for us to attend while we're down here. We've been praying for discerning hearts as well as churches now are usually pretty charismatic and unstable. The first church we went to was solid biblical teaching, but the people there were so cold and stand offish that we felt like we were a burden to have there. (the pastor excluded. He often calls my dad just to see how things are :) The next church we went to had very warm and friendly people, but the church itself seemed like it had a little bit of everything thrown in there. We got the impression that they were only worried about the numbers of the congregation (they kept telling us that there were usually more people who attended) and that they weren't really sure of their identity. There was a little bit of lutheran, catholic, baptist, etc influence in the service. The third church we went to was today's church, and it wasn't actually too bad. The message itself was really good and we quite enjoyed it, so that was great. We didn't stick around to long to see how the people were (The pastor is a very nice man and he is also a neighbor of ours) We'll just have to see. We're trying another church next week and we'll see how that turns out! SO we just keep praying that God will lead us to the right church where we can be challenged to grow!
