Yes. It could be worse for you, but maybe God will find the door to his heart again. It does make you wonder why he feels the way he does, doesn't it. Unfortunately, the high level of hypocrisy among very vocal church goers undoes the desires of a great many would-be members. I'll keep you in my prayers.
ctay said:One good thing, even though my husband won't go to church with me, he doesn't tell me not to go. He's hard to talk to about why he won't go, he gets defensive. All I feel I can do right now is set a good example and invite him, he has come with me a few times. I just hope and pray he'll start going regular one day. He was brought up in a Baptist church.
ctay said:He does like this pastor though. I'm going to try to get him to come to some of the lenten services, I'm going to invite him anyway. I'm helping with sunday school and he won't come and meet me up there for church, he'll come sometimes if there's no Sunday school. Thanks for the prayers.
ctay said:I don't know if he'll go but I'm going to try to get him to go during the mid week Lent services. I should say invite him.

It could be that your husband is afraid that he might be changed by going to often and he doesn't want to change his views at this time.

There are few things as frightening as a Born Again (?) Christian with the need to witness to everyone he/she meets.
They scare me, too.

Radidio said:It might be scary but they have that certain "I'll die for my beliefs" demenor and I actually wonder how many people would die for their faith? I know that wasn't on subject but sometimes a person does need to see the radicalness of a "born again" to make an impression on them and know someone can be very serious and not just wish-washy.
ctay said:I asked hubby yesterday if he'd go to the lenten service tonight, he never said anything except what time did it start. I called him at work a little bit ago, he told me to have him some clothes ready for tonight. Just hope he doesn't change his mind when the time comes.
