Regular, but just because a person is a "regular" does NOT make them any better a person than someone who doesnt.I know that i am a sinful person and that I need to hear GOD's word often so that I can apply it to my life.

If I'm home on Sunday, I will be in church. It hasnt always been that way though. I grew up going to church, even went to a christian highschool. But I fell away and was a very bitter person. I had many battles going on in my life and couldnt find happiness. Three years ago, a friend invited me to go to church. I went and it was as if the good Lord grabbed me by the shoulders and said this is where you belong. The music is fantastic, the preachers are great. Its just a fine church to be a member of.
Early on, I would be sitting there and it was as if the preacher was talking right at me. With what all was going on in my life, an the preacher talking to me. I would just sit there with tears rolling down my face. I would be thinking, "How is this happening? How does he know what to say to me." I get teary eyed just typing this. Like I said earlier, the music grabbed me, the preaching grabbed me. An finally, I was able to understand the true meaning of forgiveness.
I never gave to the church like I was taught to. But I do now. I firmly believe that the Lord is the one that keeps me in business today. When business slows, and I start to get a little worried, the phone always rings.
This was a bit long, but I felt compelled to share. And, if you live in Memphis or Shelby County or anywhere for that matter, and you wanna go to church. You can go with me!
Oh, my church! Its Hope Presbyterian on Walnut Grove. Its the Church for the unchurched! We would love to have you. It dont matter what you background is!
Was there on April 14 for the Third Day-Tenth Avenue North-Trevor Morgan concert.

I waited to respond to this , in case I was well in the minority. I see that I am not.
I guess I've evolved....

I go when I am at home. I work for the railroad so I do quite a bit of traveling. When I am on the road I listen to Bellevue Baptist Podcast.
