First Visit to Community Bible Church (CBC)

I seem to go back and forth about attending church. The thing is that I really feel better mentally and emotionally when I attend church on a regular basis. The method in which the message is delivered is very important to me and needs to be focused on application to real, everyday life versus something so intangible I can't relate.

CBC was really great today. It is a very large church and has alot to offer. The child building (yes building) is amazing. There are multiple classes with wonderful volunteers who watch and play with the children while the parents are in service. Today's service was focused around parenting. The pastor, Robert Emmit, is extremely funny, very down to earth, and easy to relate to. He spoke of his children leaving home and him and his wife now having an "empty nest". He ended service with a country song...so cool!!

CBC also has a number of ministries. One of the is a Single's Ministry. They have groups for single moms, single parents, something called a Single Mingle (dinners, movies, events - with other singles). This seems like a good option for me to get to know other singles with similar values. I don't know that I will necessarily meet someone there to date, however it would be nice to meet more people in my same situation and who can relate.

Anyway, I will most likely attend again. Like I said earlier, I feel much better when I attend.
