Terrific, Jim. I’m glad you have found your way to be who you were created to be. Welcome!
hi Robin, thanks for sharing with David. I enjoyed the stories and time you spent talking.
my pleasure. I have been observing and posting on the public site, under my name Doug. On signing up for the member site, I thought I would embrace where my journey has brought me. My actions are the only expression of my belief that I can verify. So I love the whole term atheish. I’ve never fit in with the consumer church. I’ve found more affinity and friendship with atheists. I’m at the happiest I’ve ever been. Still attend church weekly and am active in the services, using my gifts of hospitality. but hold loosely to the whole endeavor, care more for the community than the bricks and mortar.
I am a theologically trained Pentecostal, who worked as an associate Pastor for a small independent congregation in Stanley, NB. The reason I was not working with the denominational structure of my training is that there was a need for youth pastors with music ability. I had no interest in either.
I left the pastoral position as I realized it was not my calling. I chose to return to university and upgrade my BTh to a BA leading to BEd. The BEd has not happened and will never happen, as I found my true passion to be in partisan politics with the NDP.
