Kontan.

We visited a local church this morning. Very casual, good music, good message and the people were friendly. They weren’t overly friendly to the point of newbie embarrassment, but they recognized that we were new, guided us the right way and made us feel welcome. It is not THE church for us here, but it is definitely a contender. In the past we have really struggled with finding a church that fits. In fact there were a couple of times where we left before the service was over b/c it was just too far out there. We’re all about contemporary, relaxed, and reaching everyone but…even we have our limits. The biggest issue for us is that we were spoiled in MS. The Orchard was an amazing place to attend. Come as you are, professional musicians with a passion for what they do, great kids program, and open arms congregation…nothing compares and I guess it isn’t supposed to. I know that we will find the right place for us. We just have to take the time to search and open ourselves to what is out there.
