Today I talk to a friend about church, which is something I am always thinking about. I realize that I have been in Riverside for about umm three years and haven't found a place to call home.. well I have, but as much as I love going there, I hate going to church by myself... I think it is something that I am just going to have to do.. I have been thinking about what i look for in a church and what is more important and what is less important... I have realized that the most important thing is the teaching. I like to be challenged, which I haven't been lately... I like to learn about reformed teachings (I won't use the C word, I promise), which is another thing I haven't been learning about either. I am tired of the flowery stuff teaching and the rediculous questioning (which urges me to slap some people in the face). I know I have a lot to learn, but I do know my purpose on this Earth and who God is..
I have been thinking a lot about the questioning of truth, not that I am questioning truth, but people who do question truth... I have leaned that when I question truth it is when I have been going to a church that doesn't teach truth (or waters truth just enough for a five year old to understand) and when I haven't been reading the truth....
So I stopped this around 12:00am and I kept it.. I wasn't going to post it, but then a good friend urged me to post all my thoughts... Because they are my thoughts and well, this is my blog.. so why not?
Right now it is oh.. 12:30pm on Wednesday and I have one more final tomorrow! Praise the Lord tht I didn't have a nervous break down! Well the whole church thing is still on my mind.. but enough said about it.. I will post more!
