    Hi everyone. I'm new. Just wanted to introduce myself. I am Margie, but my friends call me Meg. I'm married with no children. My husband and I attend a Sovereign Grace Ministries church http://www.sovereigngraceministries.org/ .

    We travel 1.5 hrs (one way) to church. Yeah, I know...isn't there some place closer, right? Well, I live in a rural community where the churches are experiencing a great crisis (maybe it's everywhere, but it's definitely a problem here), and we visited this church and found exactly what we need.

    We consider ourselves somewhat bapti-costal :laugh: and this denomination's doctrine is incredibly sound and they are also sensitive to the Spirit. Absolutely AWESOME praise and worship which is also VERY biblically sound (very important for a soloist like me).

    What to expect from me...I hope to be very active here. I am a Motivator, so I hope to be of service to anyone here who may need motivating (and sometimes that person is me)--don't hesitate to question me about this if you're curious.

    I'm sure I'll have an opportunity to share more with you at a later point.

    :godisgood:

    Welcome to the Baptist Board, Meg. I once traveled 26 miles each way to a church and thought that was a long distance, although there was one within walking distance. However, at the price of gas, I couldn't possibly afford an 1 hour and a half drive away.
