However, private worship is something we can do in the privacy of home. However, when we worship corporately, is the community aspect something to consider? We are worshiping together as a community, not merely was private "islands" who just happen to be in the same room.Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2586001842145002059.post-71913492285907561602014-10-02T15:21:44.251-05:002014-10-02T15:21:44.251-05:00Did you have any blowback from any worshipers when...Did you have any blowback from any worshipers when making the change?

In addition to being able to do what I love full time (Lead worship and serve others) it will also be the first time I've only had one job since I was a teenager and the first time I've driven less than 30 miles one way to work. I'm hoping it takes a while before Kristi realizes I'll have more time available at home to do difficult tasks like picking up after myself, laundry, and loading the dishwasher the proper way (The grass stains way).Shawn Stinsonhttp://talesfromstreetroad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2586001842145002059.post-69569631751289351522013-08-25T22:34:46.529-05:002013-08-25T22:34:46.529-05:00I'm so proud of you and excited for what this ...I'm so proud of you and excited for what this means for you, Kristi and the boys.

And then we have to find a way to point them out to each other without being obvious about it. We're like Tattoo Spies. It's quite ridiculous. I even texted a clandestine picture of one to Jamie and Rachel a couple of weeks ago from Spring Valley Beach up in Blount Springs ... It was a ROLL TIDE tattoo.
