I must be getting senile as I thought for sure I had responded back to you. Sorry to hear that your group isn't doing as well as before, but I've learned that these groups seem to have their seasons. I hope your isn't the result of internal strife...
Wow, have I let month pass without writing you?!! Sorry.
I am glad your fellowship has come together. Ours has not done so well.
Glad to hear you are moving to Maui, just because you sounded so positive about it. I hope we can meet again before ...
Dave: Thanks for bringing a smile to my face this morning. I normally don't comment on this site for reasons I don't want to say because it would just exemplify why I don't. (Now that's a conundrm if I ever heard of one.)
I'm like you. I don't li...
Amen Bonnie! Can we stop all this silly nonsensical national pride as Americans. Folks, the enemy has done a masterful job of deceiving Chrisitians in this country into believing that patrtiotism ranks right up there with our faith in Jesus. What ...
Thanx for the reply, Doug. I didn't know I was talking to you. I thought it was your wife, Donna, all this time that I was addressing. I appreciate your encouragement about not worrying about doctrinal issues. I have already decided not to get too...
Bonnie, my heart goes out to you. You have a sincere desire to follow the Lord and that is refreshing. Yes, there is a lot of "garbage" being tossed around in the Christian world. Don't worry about the whole "rapture" thing. Some believe in it, ot...
Thanx for your response. How is it that God told you to move to a place you'd never heard of!? I'm sorry, but I've had so many Christians telling me things and trying to help me, that I get confused sometimes. But, I still want to discuss things. ...
Thanx for the instructions. I'll try again. So you think I can just ask God to lead me to a house church too. That just sounds so simple. I don't ask God for many things because there are so many people asking for answers. I didn't think this case...

Glad to hear you are moving to Maui, just because you sounded so positive about it. I hope we can meet again before you go. Even though the baby isn't ours, having as part of our home life has made us feel busier. Holding him is wonderful, though! I love this little guy so much and so differently than my own. What a trip!
Blessings on you in the love of Jesus,
David

I see myself as a rather intense person now, where I used to be pretty loose about life and death. I had a fear of dying, but had no idea all that is really involved in the matters of the soul. Now my husband thinks I've become a religious fanatic, but he is asking questions too. So, yes, it's a journey. Thanx for hooking me up with Bonnie, and for your responses. Hugz

- Thanx for your response. How is it that God told you to move to a place you'd never heard of!? I'm sorry, but I've had so many Christians telling me things and trying to help me, that I get confused sometimes. But, I still want to discuss things. Some people believe in the Rapture, and others have told me it is a false belief and from satan! So, you can understand that I'm cautious about it. Sorry. It's just all so much information at this time. Hope you can understand. It's actually kinda scarey cause I got involved in the Mormon church for 2 yrs. before I figured out they were not Christian. But, that's what drew me to the Christian faith, so no regrets. But, I didn't know there was so much confusion out there. Bonnie

I don't ask God for many things because there are so many people asking for answers. I didn't think this case was so important. But I suppose I could try, since both of you think it would help.

- Thanx for the site to look at, but the map is so full in the area of the U.S. where I live, that I can't even click on my state. The circles cover it. I tried the zip code, but all I was shown, was where my town is and some of the bigger businesses, it didn't give any info on home churches. I think I will talk with this other Bonnie you mentioned. Thanx.

- Thanx for the answer. How do you find a church in a home anyway?

- Hi. I'm new here also and read something you posted on Frank's board about leaving "IC". I was hoping you could humor me and tell me what that stands for, as I have not read any of his books yet, and don't get a lot of what is being said here. This is all very interesting. Bonnie L.

- Heay, Hi! I see I have a "new friend" on SC! :) How'd that happen without my approval! :) I hope you know that I'm just kidding. But....it is odd that I didn't receive a request for approval or notice of some kind. Isn't it? Since I'm new at this blogging, forum stuff.....I guess I'm not sure how it all works.
What a precious pic! It's nice to put a face to your valued words.
I'm getting the drift here and on Kingdom Citizenship that there are some issues I need to be cautious of. Can you fill me in?
Blessings to you and Donna.

Rick Knock said… - Hi Doug & Donna,
Thanks for the add, and the kind words. I agree. I no longer debate doctrine with certain ones either. In fact, I don't post much at all here anymore. But every now and then an opportunity may seem to present itself and I take one more run at the football. Perhaps one day even Charlie Brown may learn. :)
God Bless!

Kathryn Berkowitz said… - Hi Doug & Donna :
We are looking forward to it !
I am on call for a birth client who is due the 3rd, but hoping that won't interfere with our plans for getting together. I am grateful that you all have a love for children. I have wondered how little ones might be included in organic church gatherings. Although our kids were always blessed to have a wonderful children's and youth ministry at our IC, I sometimes wished we had all been together for meetings.
Now that our children are grown, the seem no worse for the wear, but that may be because we homeschooled. We have four grown children, two of which still live with us. I will ask them to join us, if they like.
Our daughter and her husband are the ones with the baby. They are both believers, and musicians, and love to worship, but I don't know if he will have to work that weekend. They have grown weary with IC and need some authentic fellowship.
Our oldest son and his wife are still in IC and are paid staff for two ICs. They serve in worship ( music ) and children's ministries. Up until the end of 2008, we served with them in the music ministry at our church for the Saturday night meetings. My husband plays guitar ( bass, acoustic and classical ) and I play a chorded zither ( autoharp ). And we sing...a little. What does your wife play ?
Thanks for the comments on my page :)
Blessings to you all, Kathryn
