Wilderness Wandering

I am a member of THE Church - the body of Christ.
For a long time, we attended services everywhere--
different denominations and different styles;
including home churches
and even services at home (we definitely have the "2 or 3" covered- and then some).

We wandered in the wilderness
and learned that we were still His
even if we didn't go to a building with a denomination listed.

When we resigned from the local meeting place that we had attended for years,
we were told that we were backslidden and must join somewhere or it was a sin.

Thankfully, we had God's Word and a relationship with Him and knew better.

We drew closer to Him through the time of non-membership with any local affiliation and
just last month (*update: it's been a year now) joined with a local group of believers who "get it".

We joined simply because they do "get it". But we were just as welcome when we were non-members.

It's wonderful to be a part of the Body where God's Word is preached without the traditions of man!

A place where you WANT to invite everyone to go!
