Ford man, I have been through your experience almost step for step. Except I was never a deacon.
I did teach Sunday school and and have been very active in a couple of different churches. I've found that I prefer small country churches that don't grow.
I know how awful that sounds, but in my experience,growth brings the politics.
Especially when someone decides to begin a building fund drive.
I truly don't believe Jesus meant for his church bride to be "a building".
I believe the church is anywhere that people gather to worship. I even believe it's possible to find your own church in the peacefulness of God's great outdoors.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.
