It is despair ...I thank you so much for your words. It is despair to see so many "Christians" think of Church and Christianity as pure religion. As you said, it's much more. The purpose of Christianity and Church is to show and manifest our love for each other and most importantly, God. It's not about being attractive. I agree with you in so many ways. God is working in your life, and if you hold fast to Him (which you are - I'm proud of you), He will lead you down the paths of righteousness. <br /><br />Thank you. God bless.<br /><br />Katelyn SwopeUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758850725046642775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27684923.post-21852501294425313502008-07-14T10:34:00.000-07:002008-07-14T10:34:00.000-07:00dearest sister in Christ,i write that salutation w...dearest sister in Christ,<BR/><BR/>i write that salutation with the greatest of sincerity. <BR/><BR/>This past year i have wandered in the desert. i had left a church that started with five to ten people and grew to 500 within a few short years. <BR/>i became churchless. <BR/><BR/>it felt like i was homeless.<BR/><BR/> i visited many, many supposed house' of God. <BR/><BR/>i am discouraged.<BR/><BR/>my family is temporarily attending a midsize church. <BR/><BR/>i still feel lost, homeless. the message of the Gospel of Christ has been lost in small groups, fund raisers, ministry (LOL), worship with advertisements for ministry between each song (no hymn's, just songs),communion that is not even close to what it should be, ....<BR/><BR/>i have met some pretty awesome folks. Nice people but if I was to label them they would be "christian lite's" .<BR/><BR/>Anyway, your blog mirrored my thoughts and we are in agreement on Church. I have been praying for a Christ like way to blog on this topic. It's complicated.<BR/><BR/>walk with Him and stay on the path.<BR/><BR/>Blessings<BR/><BR/>Frankie GBrother Frankiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081661623967845655noreply@blogger.com
