Hello Michael,
Welcome to SimpleChurch! There's a group for people from NC called North Carolina Connections. I hope you decide to join that group and take part in the discussions there.

Michael, You can find "groups" under the Groups tab at the top of the page. However, I'll send you an invitation to the North Carolina Connections group, so you won't have to hunt for it.

My name is Dana Cashwell and I along with my husband Travis, my three kids, Cameron 7 (she's a girl), Madeline 5 and Thomas 4 we left the church 3 years ago to BE the Church. The problem was we didn't know how to do it. Travis and I grew up in church so when we explained to our family, friends and church what God wanted us to do, the majority of them considered us apostates and heretics. Don't get me wrong, they loved us in their way, they just didn't support us.

A year ago, along with some of the friends we had left, started something called So What! Ministries (shameless plug: www.sowhatministries.com). Which was all about getting people off their butt and serving their community/church/family. Then we read Pagan Christianity. Mainly because George Barna was listed as an author. After reading it, we devoured everything that Frank Viola has written because he put on paper what we were going through and what to do about it. We're in the process now of revamping and updating everything.

I felt like I was wandering in the wilderness for 3 years searching for the promised land; thank God I finally found it!
