    Scenes from a Parish

    Hello all. In continuing my exploration, I was browsing through Amazon Video and found "Scenes from a Parish". I'll assume others here have seen it, if not, I'd recommend it. I absolutely love the priest in this film. He "gets" meeting people where they are at in order to bring them to the...

I don't want this thread to turn controversial or anything, I am exploring things, trying to find a faith path, and I have long been at least mildly interested in both Utrecht and Anglican churches. I nearly converted to RC while I...

    Hello All

    I'm sure this is the post you've all been waiting for. After much heart-wrenching consideration and soul searching, and renewed soul searching, I am leaving the Lutheran church. I'm not growing spiritually in the ELCA. I've disliked it since I went through confirmation. I often wish my pastor...

    Actually went to a good weddiing

    I generally dislike weddings because they are tedious and impersonal. (Granted, the last 6 weddings I've gone to have been Catholic weddings). Today I went to a Lutheran one, and it was fantastic. Even better was the church was literally a half of a block away from my apartment, and I really...

    Which do you save?

    You are at a fertility clinic and it starts on fire. You know you for certain can get out with time to spare, and there are two options in front of you that you can bring with you. There is no one else around so you cannot count of someone else bringing the other with you. Your options are 2...

    I found out today we're having Christmas at my parents' house. This is sort of good because it's closer to where I'm living, so I don't have to drive as far, but traditionally we have Christmas at my grandparents' house. They have the BEST ELCA church. Aside from the few mishaps in the past few...

    Just a Thought...

    It seems the longer I'm on this site...(not WWMC but other forums) the more I want to back away from Christianity because my idea of Christianity doesn't seem to fit with a lot of other people's, nor do I want it to. If their Christianity is the "right way", I want no part. Anyone else feel that...
