    I have been a member of well over 20 churches - so I guess I am a church hopper

    Maybe so. Do you have a hard time keeping your feet planted?

    When over the years the Lord calls you to different geographical locations, you move your membership. I moved mine whenever I was transferred in the Coast Guard and then when I went to college back East.

    Do you have a hard time understanding God's leadership in the lives of His servants?

    My feet may not stay planted, but I do plant myself into a church wherever my feet take me.

    Kinda hard to obey the imperative to make disciples if you don't stick around anywhere long enough to disciple anybody.

    I was in my last church for 27 years. How long have you been in your present church?

    Not all of us are 40 something kids. Some of us have been around for a while. Quite a while.

    I have never been at a church for less than 3 years, except one where I went there with the intent of moving to a sister church when the position opened up.

    Now, do you want to continue your attacks on my character, calling, ministry, and God's leadership, or do you think it may be wiser to just let it go?

    There is a reason (not an excuse) why I have been in over twenty churches -but others have just assumed and never asked about the facts.

    I suspect over 20 years in the military may have contributed to it. :)

    Westboro belongs in a category of its own. There is plenty of room for "upper case" Fundamentalism this side of Westboro.
