@theducktator @the_lost-journal
Ok, I’ll try to clear up the confusion then!
For not understanding, I don’t understand the whole set up of a contemporary non-denominational church. There is no structure whatsoever, and it confuses me greatly. XD
As for structure within the service, this is going to depend largely upon the church to be honest. Our…[Read more]

I meant within the service.

Ok, cool!
What do you mean by structure? Like within the local, individual churches or broadly, like all of them?

FIREQUACKER replied to the topic Denomination Q and A in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 1 year, 7 months ago
Are y’all talking about non-denominational churches? I’d be willing to answer your questions about them, although I can’t guarantee that my answers would be true for every non-denom church.
Indeed. For context, here is what I said in my first post:

I fully believe there isn’t a single human being on this earth who worships Mary.
I mean, like Stephie said, there could be, but I’m not accusing anyone particular of this. I’ve just heard of people treating her that way and wanted to express my opinion on that. : )

Lolll, true. This Protestant’s probably going to stay out of it. XD
Mostly what I don’t understand with different denominations is how people can read their Bibles and still believe what they believe.
If I answered, I’d become the enemy of a lot of people.
Now I’m curious…If you do answer, I promise not to burn you at the sta…[Read more]

But the one thing that does frustrate me sometimes is using colored lights and fog and other “special effects”- like what good purpose does that serve? It usually ends up being more distracting to me.
You aren’t the only one. Our very traditional church had another pastor visit as a parishioner on his day off. He said he was tired of…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal Yay, more questions!
How big is your church? (if you go to church.)
Probably around 60 people total. I just counted 58, but I probably missed a few people. I’d guess on a given Sunday we usually have 45-50 or so.
What is one thing you disagree/don’t understand with a different denomination?
I’m probably going to start an arg…[Read more]

Classmate 1: “Guys! I have the answer!”
Classmate 2: “Crack!”
Text exchange with my mom:
Me: “We are out of bird seed, suet, and grapefruit.”
Mom: “And I am at the eye doctor.”
Me: “I know. If you ask a store associate, I’m sure they can read the labels for you.”
Classmate: “You are a very classical human being.”

Benny is a fun character! Did Lois draw him?
Thanks!
No, actually, Lois doesn’t really do any cartoons. Brea drew him when she was a bit younger

@rae
It just occurred to me that it would be totally plausible for us to meet up irl one day. 😳 Even though I live in Ohio, a lot of my mom’s side of the family lives in Connecticut (the state you’re in, right?), and we visit at least every two years or sometimes even once a year. It’s a pretty small state…wouldn’t it be crazy if the next time…[Read more] -

How big is your church? (if you go to church.)
Maybe a little over a hundred? I think? Our old church was smaller though, closer to about 50 or 60 members.

I think I could go on and on about this since there are little nuances in different d…[Read more]

Yeah, that’d be cool!
I live in Northeast Connecticut, around thirty minutes from the Massachusetts border.
Ok, our family up there lives a little closer to Hartford. I’ll have to let you know the next time we travel up there. It could be really fun!!
Yeah!
