So a few years ago when I started using Facebook (FB) more regularly, I decided to fill out the rest of my profile information. There was a section in there that asked about my "Religious Views." To most this may be an easy answer, but for the first time in my life I had found myself in a transition stage between two churches. The interesting part about this was, there was nothing wrong with the old one, and we were not leaving town. I was just getting involved with the new church and wasn't totally sure of anything but the core beliefs. Long story short, my "Religious Views" were not a cut and dry decision. So what should I put in there!? I thought about it for maybe a few seconds and typed: Christian - Organic. I had full intention on changing it eventually but it caused many of my friends to ask, What does that mean? I also had a couple comments, "it looks like you are part of a cult or something." So with much question and controversy over what seemed at the time a quick decision, I now am going to leave it there forever or until FB goes belly-up. I also decided just recently to start this blog to explain my split second decision. So I invite you, my soon to be readers, to hang on and take this journey of faith with me.
