Speaker 1
It and maybe we could talk a.
Speaker 2
Little bit more about church.
Speaker 1
What’s been your experience? I think you’ve had some really interesting.
Speaker 2
Experiences about trying to find the right church and eventually you found one that.
Speaker 1
Really made you maybe even to this.
Speaker 2
Day, feel really a part of it.
Speaker 1
What was that for you?
Speaker 3
I think for me, what made me.
Speaker 4
Feel like a part of church was.
Speaker 3
The community and the connection with other people. And it was really when other members.
Speaker 4
In the church reached out to me and sort of gave me a place.
Speaker 3
There, they saw value in me for.
Speaker 4
Their community and really kind of brought me into that.
Speaker 1
And.
Speaker 4
I’m somebody who I like to give with my actions.
Speaker 3
Acts of service are definitely a way that I show love.
Speaker 4
And so for me, having a place to serve really helped me find that.
Speaker 3
Sense and then having that service be.
Speaker 4
Appreciated, that was key for me to feel like I fit in the church.
Speaker 3
And I think that’s a part of it too is understanding what our own love languages are and then the church.
Speaker 4
Community where our natural love language operating that way is then well received by them.
Speaker 5
So for some people, that’s giving gifts, for some people that’s acts of service.
Speaker 2
But I hope if you didn’t get.
Speaker 1
That, you still would have stayed with the church. Right?
Speaker 3
Well, for me, God really called me into the church. And that was another big thing for.
Speaker 4
Me was that I think that the church that I felt most at home.
Speaker 3
At was one that God really clearly called me to.
Speaker 4
I had been praying about where to.
Speaker 3
Go to church and God actually told.
Speaker 5
Me specifically a church in a specific city.
Speaker 3
And I had no connection to that city. I didn’t really know much about it.
Speaker 4
It wasn’t real close to where I was.
Speaker 3
There was this one moment that God.
Speaker 5
Really clearly spoke that to me to.
Speaker 3
Go to that church. And then a couple months later, I.
Speaker 4
Was at an event and I was.
Speaker 3
Talking to someone about what I was.
Speaker 4
Looking for in a church.
Speaker 3
And the interesting thing was that the.
Speaker 4
Person that the gal was speaking to.
Speaker 5
She’S like, I know just the church for you.
Speaker 4
And she said the exact same church. And so that was really weird. So it just really felt very providential.
Speaker 3
And then when I did go, once.
Speaker 4
I worked up the courage to actually.
Speaker 3
Go there because it really was out.
Speaker 4
Of my way, then very soon after that, I was very warmly like, someone actually called me over and was like, you’re an answer to our prayer.
Speaker 5
And I was like, I don’t even know who you are. What are you talking about?
Speaker 4
It was really weird, but.
Speaker 5
It was true. God orchestrated all of this and they prayed the same time I first felt called there.
Speaker 4
So I really do believe and you’re.
Speaker 2
Really active again, you were really involved, and that made a big difference. And I think that’s what kept me.
Speaker 1
In my church was just being able to be actively involved. And to this day, I feel very useful there.
