To Clarify…

Posted by athinkingwoman on 11th March 2008

With the last few posts about our journey into paedobaptism, I believe there has been some misunderstanding.  It was not our intention to announce that we were dissolving our membership at our current church.  We simply believed that our closer friends, who are generally the ones who read our blogs, deserved an explanation as to why they may not see us at church regularly.  We are in the process of *looking* for a church which agrees with our heart on this issue.  We are still members at our beloved current church until further notice.  Also, if  or when we do dissolve our membership, we will announce it in a way that is more personal.  Our hearts are breaking over this. But we don’t know what else to do.  We don’t know how else to handle it.  We believe we may have made some people angry/frustrated/disappointed in us.  Again, we are truly heartbroken about this. Neither Josh nor I slept much last night because we were too grieved at the prospect that we have let someone in particular down who we love and respect so much. We understand that not everyone will understand, or support us, let alone agree with us.  It’s possible that we may not have handled this situation in the best way possible, but we did think it through and we tried the best we knew how.  We’re sorry if we’ve caused any unnecessary pain, but please know that we’re hurting too.
