jumped too fastPosted : 23 May, 2011 01:27 PMI jumped too fast, and joined a church because the people their are loving and joyful. The Pastor, however, is stern, old-school strict, and not nearly as copassionate as I like a pastor to be. He also is not a good speaker. on Sunday, and Weds, I'm left scraching my head, and getting more from reading the text myself, than his preaching on it. I would like to look for another, but don't want to hurt feelings. Help |

jumped too fastPosted : 24 May, 2011 09:02 AMHubbard, we all make mistakes. Just ask yourself this, did God call you to this particular church, or did you chose it, because you wanted to go there? If you answered this as your choice, and not God's, then you should look for another church, irregardless of whether it will hurt someone's feelings. It's more important to follow God and less to make people happy. |
