Thankful Thursday  I'm still trying to figure out why I can't insert the image for Thankful Thursday, but at least I can be thankful and blog about my thankfulness.

Hmmmmmmmm..... today I'm thankful God has led us to our new church.   This past weekend we were introduced as members at our new church and we had our socks blessed off.  We are amazed at how God has brought us to this church even though we resisted and had lots of excuses not to make the change.  "No, it's too far away," was our biggest excuse.   But we realize now we'd drive to the ends of the earth for the teaching and focus on the gospel we're receiving.    Many of our friends from our old church would agree about issue we had there, but would always end the conversation with, "But we stay because of the relationships we have here."  We just did not feel that was an adequate answer to questions about leadership and teaching at that church.  We saw big holes due to the trickle down effect of leaders who struggled with the Timothy model of discipling their own wives and children.  OK, I'm not going to get into all the reasons we left our former church, but suffice it to say we are so THANKFUL God has led us to our new home. 

Many folks who we've told where we're attending comment on or ask the question, "Oh, is that the guy who wrote I Kissed Dating Good-bye? "  Yes, that's the one.  Here's a link if you want to take a peek.  Our new church
