i stand corrected

so i recently posted a blog stating that my community group leader was leaving mars hill because he felt God was leading him into a different direction. i also stated that he didn't have a problem with the church, that he was just feeling called to serve God elsewhere. well after having coffee with him on monday i stand corrected. he is leaving mars hill because he has a problem with the church. with the recent controversy at mars hill some members left the church, taylor being one of them. my meeting with him was interesting and i was quite distressed when i left. i have been thinking about what he told me, how to digest and come to a decision with the information. i have been praying on it and i am not sure i have come to a full conclusion, but i am getting there. i talked to my dad about it and he helped me understand some of issues i was confused with. i am finished with my gospel classes and will start my membership interview process soon.

It's hard to leave something you love..when a lot of our friends left Gateway, we realized we couldn't leave just because of what we heard..it had to be from our own experience..which happened a couple of years later..it was the best thing we could have done, but it was also the hardest..
