The Pastor's Visit

It was a little stressful last night talking to the pastor of our
church...well the church we've been going to. I mean I know in my heart
I'm a Christian, but I don't really feel that I've accepted Christ. I
told her that. I told her I don't want to say it until I feel it in my
heart. She gave me stuff to read, a book, and scripture from the bible.
Also encouraged me to pray at home and read the bible with the kids.

I told her some of my big "hang-ups" with organized religion. She was
really good to talk to. She is a kind person and not pushy. I really
like that. The whole church wants you to be there but they're never
like "we missed you last Sunday, and Sunday night, and Wednesday night,
and Saturday afternoon. Where were you???" They are pretty low-key for
Baptists. And I've always related better to women than men...

She really wanted me to join the church choir... and with the kids too
who seemed interested. That is Wednesday nights, so I'm going to talk
to their mother about either switching days or bringing them to church
at 6:30 on Wednesdays.
