    you know, i'm a pagan ........ but i agree with this wholeheartedly
    - i don't let the sun go down on an arguement and never leave a loved one without hugging them and telling them i love them

That said, I follow what Jesus wrote in the bible and follow his teachings. Jesus taught love and acceptance of people. You dont have to agree with them, but that should never cause a divide.
    True in many cases, just have to find the right Church.

    My Church is Holy Trinity, Devonport. Has a thriving Youth group and although there are some aspects that could change, it is in no way judgemental and we are very flexible.

    I know St Paul's in the City is worth a visit and sometimes attend the Christian Family Church in Devonport which is more about living the word. It is good to visit other Churches......but my 'Home' is Holy Trinity and with personal stuff and Home Groups cannot always do everything.


    Anyway, Nats is being Baptised 4th November....she asked which is cool and the way it should be so am getting excited.
