So my family and I were going to the same church for almost 4 years. About 2 months ago we walked out and never went back. Mostly because we didn't agree on the topic that our pastor was talking about. He talked about How to tell if you married and loser & how you can get rid of your loser. There were so many other things that was said that made my husband and I so uncomfortable. I miss it terribly and so does my daughter. I am not sure if my husband does or not. But this past weekend he asked me if I wanted to go back to Radiant. I told him sure we can if he wanted to. It isn't only up to me. Well today I was looking online and I just wanted to see what this Sundays topic was gonna be about- it is: 'What to say to your gay friend' WHAT! Is a church even supposed to be talking about things like this- are they supposed to be singling people out? In my opinion the answer is NO. So I did a search for local churchs and found the one that my friend goes to. She and her family love it. They say nothing but good things about the pastor- I looked it up online & they are actually talking about why GOD made us. I don't know why I am so shocked. Maybe because I am so used to these off the wall topics. I really need church in my life- so does my daughter. It is good for her to learn about GOD and his men & women. Since we haven't been going I feel this emptiness inside me. Like I have lost someone really important to me. I called my friend & talked to her about the church she goes to and we are gonna try it this Sunday. I am so nervous about starting a whole new church. I talked to my daughter about it & she is so excited. I haven't talked to my husband yet- but I am sure he'll be up for it. I don't know why I am so nervous. I guess I will just pray that GOD helps me find the right church for me and my family. thanks for listening!
