I really love our brothers and sisters.

Not trying to be haughty or judgmental, in even a remote sense ....

But after extended sessions away from my congregation (traveled for 2 months this summer) and primarily interacting with various people online and offline, who don't .... think about ... spiritual issues, I feel like I've taken my first shower in months being back around my bros. and sis.

Almost no ego, no contention, smiles and jovial comical air about things. We're on the same page.

No political nonsense, no hate, and I know they will give me a pass when I don't behave in a Christian way, as I will them.

I can't wait until this world is full of people who have the knowledge of God.

In the meantime, thank you congregation, for being who you are.
