Thanks!"AM Kingsfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254966403088963409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12478084.post-91146713990693178522009-08-01T15:43:57.515-05:002009-08-01T15:43:57.515-05:00Whether or not you can help bring about change wil...Whether or not you can help bring about change will require discernment on your part through the leading of the Holy Spirit. I finally realized that I had to leave in order to follow God's call to me. It was not an easy decision for me, but the transition was harder on my family. <br /><br />From my experience, a significant change of this kind is easier for younger children. Believe me it is hard enough negotiating with a spouse on where to worship, when teenagers are involved THEIR opinions only complicate a difficult situation. I wish you only the best as you continue to wrestle with the issues you have described.kbeckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12035048016818059153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12478084.post-89922200926552437682009-08-01T07:19:21.333-05:002009-08-01T07:19:21.333-05:00Brittyne-

It is not about women nagging for the right to speak. It is about a fundamental shift in how we view the scripture and its revelation of our Lord. My prayer is that our churches will listen."</i><br /><br />It's so hard when we think it is only about a woman's "right" to speak in the service. You statement about it being a shift in how we view scripture and its revelation rings true.<br /><br />God bless you on your struggle. Thanks for your voice.jduckbakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02664680342507036663noreply@blogger.com
