[TruthTalk] Oophs!! Why the listen to voices from the past?

No Izzy I didn't direct that remark to anyone in particular, glad you are so happy in your part of the Church.  Do the spiritual gifts operate and do they lay hands on the sick and cast out demons?  This is what I long to see - along with good spiritual discernment in the leadership, that is.   From: "ShieldsFamily" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Jt, if that comment was meant for me (re: a seeker-friendly church we attend) let me say that it is a very relational community of Believers. Also a very evangelical one—even though it is entirely non-traditional and non-“churchy”. The lives changed there are amazing. We baptized 110+ folks a few Sundays ago. In fact, I’d like to write about some of those testimonies one day. The folks that you fellowship with are personally responsible for “looking out for you.” They constantly hammer about “getting connected”.   Oh, and also, it isn’t a Megachurch.  Holds probably less than a thousand people (just guessing). We just moved into our first “real” (new) facility (after meeting in the local YWCA for many years) in December.  Already we have 2-3 services every weekend to contain the volume of folks. Will have to add on already starting next year.  If it turns into a Megachurch (not a goal, but it could feasibly happen—no one wants to turn anyone away) I guess we can say that the crowds were drawn to Jesus in His earthly days also. J Izzy (PS It’s also no better than thousands of other churches, I’m sure.  It just has its niche in the overall picture of things.)   Attend a "user friendly" Megachurch and tell me who is responsible for and is looking out for your soul.
