The Sanctuary

I’ve finally started reading Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis (my favorite author). Amazing. I just love his writing style. It’s like he says everything and more about what I would like to say to the world, except he sounds much better saying it. I guess I will just stick to singing to the world instead of writing to it.

I went to Birchwood Baptist Church today. I enjoyed it pretty well. They have a rather large college/career group. And man…the girl:guy ratio out here is AMAZING! The church is pretty close to Southwestern Seminary, so I think that they pull in a lot of students. Anyway, in class we talked about “Disputable Matters” within the Church. Whether they fall into the category of command or conviction and the proper vs. improper way to handle them.

The first thing that came up was alcohol. I almost got fired up, but I held my tongue on that one. It was a good lesson though…out of Romans…eating meat vs. not eating meat.

The pastor preached on why Christ died. It was a pretty good sermon. The worship was all hymns. I missed our 9:30 service, but I enjoyed the hymns.
