Welcome to all our new friends

Welcome!! If you got any questions feel free to ask or just come over and post.

Most of the questions are just theological and I have all kinds of theology spinning around in my head as a result of trying several different churches. I've been going to a very contemporary service with my Dad for a long time, even though I knew the services were liturgical (and I don't have a problem with that) I still was just sort of in for a new experience, it had been a long time since I had to read stuff lol
