The Journey
9:38 AMI have talked a lot in the past few weeks about the journey that our family is on, as well as the book that started us on it “So You Don’t Want to go to Church Any More?” by Wayne Jacobson. Several people have expressed concern over his book and the man himself that I felt I ought to address.
First of all, I want to make it very clear that I and my family are not following Wayne Jacobson, we are following what God has called us to do. We had been struggling with a lot of questions about church and the Christian life in general, and Mr. Jacobson pointed us in the right direction. There are several things he said that we checked against scripture to make sure that what he was saying was true, and there are still no things that he has said that we don’t agree with. We know that he is human and has mistakes, but he has reminded us of what we are supposed to be doing as Christians.
If you have questions about the journey that we are going on, I would love to answer them. If I get enough of them I will make a whole post out of the answers on Monday.
Note; I do not mind if you disagree with me, you are still welcome to leave questions. If you don’t want me to publish your comment but want me to answer a question, just say as much in your comment.

Well, I was wondering what some of those things your family had been questions about the church and Christians (if it's appropriate to share that)? What were the things that were bothering your family about it..the youth groups, the lack of witnessing, the ungodliness in the church today...what?
ReplyDeleteWould you be able to share some of the scriptures that lead you to this decision?
Also, what are the ways that you have been spending your church time now that you aren't attending a church anymore? What do you like about it?
Thanks for sharing!
Blessings!

The main thing is to follow Jesus Christ and I think that book made it clear (I've read the entire book as well).
