We Switched Churches

Yes, after about 40 years in an evangelical church we left and went to another church. Now I don't recommend switching churches just because we aren't happy but there comes a time when it is important to switch. I am glad we switched. I will explain by commenting on three young men, Rob, Brian and Chris.
Rob was the youth pastor at the church we left. Rob was a great example to our oldest son and helped shape him into the man he is today. But Rob's days at that church were coming to a close and he would not have the influence over our other sons.
Brian was the first youth pastor in the church we to which we switched. Brian wasn't concerned whether he grew a great youth group by numbers but he wanted everyone under his ministry to know that they were truly born again.
Chris followed Brian and his desire was that those in his youth group knew the Word of God. To do this he started the Great Commission School through our church.
These three young men were not only teachers of our sons but they were great models for them to follow.
Thank you Lord for sending these young men into our lives. We would not have known Brian and Chris if we had not switched churches.
