Title: Need a Church Home
Post by: m.curran on January 09, 2009, 09:01:45 am
Hi, Ladies!
As I was posting today, I mentioned that my husband and I are still looking for a church home.  Though we have the same beliefs, we differ in how we worship... my husband likes the VERY traditional services and I like the VERY praise and worship ones.  We both desire to find a church that teaches the BIBLE and where the focus is truly on knowing His Word, but we would also like to find this in a church that isn't HUGE which is difficult to find in the area we live in...  Please pray that God will guide and direct us to the perfect church and that ultimately, He will focus us on where He wants us to be and not on what we think we want or need in a church (how selfish!).  We are both very frustrated with church hopping and can't wait to be in a constant place of worship!
Thanks,
Michelle

This situation sounds all too familiar.  We were going to a church for the past two years that wasn't right for our family and we so wanted a church home that we could all agree on.  Although finding our church home took much longer than I wanted or planned, the wait was so worth it.  I know God's timing is not our own sometimes.  I pray that your family will find its church home and that you will have peace in the waiting.
