I learned that Albuqerque never felt like home to me, no matter how much time I spend here. I spent two and half years in North Carolina and it instantly felt like home.

I know the feeling.

the thing is tho.. it's not about them or me or us. it shouldn't be, if they think it is then the whole experience of what we've been thought is wasted on us, the problem in my eyes with denominations & different interpretations of the bible are that not only it divides us but it makes us believe that what we as individuals think is the right way is the way to go & that we focus on that instead of trying to think of others & see what they have to say & what it is that they are struggling with. In the last few months I've been trying to focus my attention in the letters Paul wrote & what they mean & how I should apply them to my life in order to be an example to others not in order to make it about me & my salvation, I've been a Catholic all my life & for the first time in all the years I had knowledge of "religion", only now I see what the bible means & how the pictures is much bigger than just me. it completely blew my mind that in all the years that I considered myself a follower of Christ I didn't have the slighted idea what being a Christian meant ( & by Christian I mean a follower of Christ, not a Methodist.. nor a Catholic not a Baptist but all of those put together as one church ) I didn't understand why I was praying, I thought I did it.. "oh it's what the priest told us at mass" "oh well I need to pray because that's what God says" only now I've realized that it was more than all that, I put my attention on the rules that were laid out in front of me following mindlessly because I was told to do so & that somehow it was for my own good. Now even if I'm still growing in my faith I feel a big weight lifted off because I chose on my own to follow Christ not because others told me so but because it's easy for me to understand what the bible means & why God gave us these teachings. I don't mean to say that to be a good person you have to be a Christian, what I'm saying is that from my own experience in life & all that I have struggled with (addictions to a number of things, pregnancy due to abuse & also neglect on my behalf) I tried numerous ways to get rid of all the problems & simply being a good person didn't cut it for me, I truly believe there is a God that cares for me as much as anyone else & that's why I don't make it about myself, I have my selfish moments as anyone else but I try to persevere in my focus & going to church has helped me be in the right path. I don't see how all that has happened is just a big coincidence & I ended up where I'm now, in the time & place surrounded my the ones that care for me because it just happened, I don't know how all this could just happen, I've experiences personally the love of God & that's why I have faith that He exists & watches over me, I've seen lives changed because of the love that a changed person can give & how unselfish & easy it is for them to be there for others. There are countless people that use Christianity to do completely unforgivable things & if that is what they chose then let them be but if they really came to know what the bible says & why Jesus came to die for us they wouldn't do the things they do, they wouldn't say the things they say. I know it's a matter of faith ( - note that the end it says: DO YOU BELIEVE THIS? ) I can't give you proof that God exists or that Jesus came to save us. I can't, it's up to you to be the person you want to be, I won't judge you or avoid you because you don't share my beliefs but if there is others that go to their so called church & then act like a complete hypocrite & do what benefits themselves because they have a self given right to interpret the bible as they like, that's their mistake. I'm no philosopher but if you ask me, Jesus teachings are pretty black & white. If you believe in Christ & in Heaven & Hell you wouldn't think that someone like Johnny Cash knows the first thing about Jesus because He sang about him in his song, if you say praise the lord or write a pretty little song about God or Jesus then you go & use the lyrics wrote by a satanist in another one of your songs, ( like Johnny Cash has done ) how does that make sense? where is the logic in that? I'm sorry I didn't really understand your reply completely but I hope I made myself a little bit more clear in all this. I love the church I attend because I don't feel pressured to be what I'm not.. I'm not thrown out because I'm different or I believe something else, I'm actually encourage to go to further more understand it. When I was still Catholic & my husband was going to Elevation, many people there knew I came from a different perspective but I wasn't judged once & that's what made me want to go back. believe me, before I chose Elevation even if it was the church my husband attended I tried several different places & in all I felt judged & even if they told me I was welcome I didn't see how pointing fingers at others during their preaching was going to help them being Godly people, it all felt like it was more about pride than anything else. Not all places are like that, I'm sure there are countless churches like Elevation but in my city I feel like it's where now in this point of my life I'm supposed to be. I really enjoy their videos, I find them very creative - http://vimeo.com/14728653 http://vimeo.com/14394638

I was just watching their vimeo page & I thought I'd post this video in one week end 2158 people were baptized :nice:
