What am I supposed to be doing…
This is in response to a friends blog post (http://joshriebock.com/blog/?p=10) on the role of the Church in our lives, and whether or not that need is being met.
It’s funny…I’m on the bubble right now on this. I’m not about to leave my church by any means, but I’m struggling with my role in one of the myriad subsets of our church’s community. You see, I attend a larger church than I did growing up, and so at this church there are many subcultures. You know the 20somethings, the children’s ministry teams, etc. I straddle the border between a couple different groups and sit on the periphery of others and I wonder if that’s where I’m supposed to be.
All of these subgroups have a variant on the overall culture of our church. But, and this is important, they’re open, honest, & relevant. They are important to me, and I know this, deep down. I’m just searching for my niche. I’m searching for the core (small) group that will know me…the real me.
I think I’m beginning to find it thanks to the great folks around me, most importantly my incredible wife, Kassy. So thanks ya’ll, and stay tuned. I have a feeling it’s about to get exciting!
