Going to the Same Place Getting There in Different Vehicles

One of my favorite things Father Kent talks about in church is how we are all going to the same place, it’s just how we get there that’s different.  I love our church family we found when we moved to Florida.  Our job does require that we travel on occasion and when we do we normally try to find a church of the same denomination, but occasionally we find a local contemporary church near where we are staying and have to check it out.  Last summer while in West Palm Beach we visited a contemporary church in Palm Beach Gardens. It was definitely a different vehicle, but the messages were the same and like Father Kent mentioned, we were all going to the same place.

One of the reasons I loved our church was because they very welcoming and not judgmental.  That was important to me.  I got a bad taste for organized religion when I visited a church in Georgia a few times with one of my husband’s ex-coworkers.  Every time we got together they spent more time worrying about what the other denominations were doing then they did with what they were doing.  I want to get it out there now. I don’t care what religion you are, nor do I care if you believe in God, Allah, or whoever.  You are a human being and I respect you as a living creature. Aren’t we supposed to try and love everyone?

I try not to bring too much religion onto my blog because I know I have readers who don’t have the same beliefs I have and I respect that is your choice. However, every once in a while I can’t help but post something that touches me, after all it is my blog, right?
