14 months ago I stepped down as elder and left a church I have attended for 22 years.  Normally, the severing of any kind of relationship initiates pain and grief.  There was some of that, but the situation as it evolved was more liberating than anything else.  Sure, sometimes I get angry over the way things happened. That is mostly from occurrences in the past and how I should have reacted differently.

My plan was to start this blog months ago as a way to document my search for a new church home and adjusting to a new way of living my faith.  Well that didn't happen. And that's OK.  Back then I would have probably concentrated on the shortcomings of my previous experience instead looking forward.

I'll still review the journey that led me from my old church to my current church and examine my thoughts and the events that led to each step of the journey. 

Stay tuned...
