Comment on Oregon Mountains by Debbie (John Hobbins' Secretary)

I saw your blog address on David’s blogsite and just wanted to see what Dave’s dad had to say from Oregon. Funny thing is that I’ve misplaced your address since, and now … a month later … I found it again so that’s why I’m so late in replying.

I was just reading about Janet. Tragic! And so fast. I wish David and his family would’ve made it back in time to see her again. The Lord had a different plan, I guess. We’ll continue to pray for the family for healing, strength and courage to get through the rough days, weeks, months, etc. ahead.

Thanks, Debbie, Lingamish is my boy, and I enjoy his blogs too. I know very little about this blogging stuff, but enjoy reading those of others.
I grew up in California, but when I finished school I didn’t want to settle there, so moved to Oregon. Just Saturday we were able to drive up over the Santiam Pass and attend a wedding in Bend. It was a beautiful drive through the mountains and then into the central Oregon area There were several 10,000 foot mountain peaks in view for most of the trip. We feel blesed to live here. How did you find me?

Comment on Update on a church divided by Steve

Sunday night “a church divided’ voted in a new pastor with an approval percentage of 94.1. Praise the Lord. It looks like after a year of healing we are no longer divided, but have come together. We pray that the 6% will be able to stand behind our new pastor, too. If you are one of them, what can we do to help? All of us have grown during this period, and hopefully we have adopted Paul’s admonition in 1 Corinthians to set aside our own desires and work toward the common goal. We will never all agree on everything such as music, dress codes, leadership styles , etc. but we must agree on the fact that God has placed us here for a purpose and it is up to us to do all we can to reach that purpose and goal.

Hi Steve!
I hear you’re Lingamish’s dad?!?! Very cool! He is so much fun to read and converse with. I’m thrilled to see you have your own site now … I’ve read your comments on Dave’s site … and look forward to reading about your takes on Christianity and your world in Oregon. My husband, George and I took a two week honeymoon from Wisconsin to California … up the coast to Oregon … and back to Wisconsin almost 25 years ago now. We saw many beautiful places, but we both agreed that Oregon was the neatest because it had it all … mountains, ocean coast, deserts, and forests. Our favorite place of all was Mount Hood. You’re very fortunate to live in such a beautiful area. Otherwise, I just wanted to say ‘hi’. Take care.
Blessings -
Debbie

Yes, this is about our home church. There are some things going on that don’t appear to be right. They might be technically ok according to our by-laws, but there is the appearance of some improper stuff. That is kind of vague, but I don’t want to go into more detail at this time.

This situation has caused all of us to study, pray, and band together to help each other with the hurts. That is the good that is coming out of this situation.

The heading “Why men hate going to church”. is from a book that I read that outlines many reasons why “todays” men are not comfortable in church. I have been in church most of my life so many of those things don’t bother me too much, but I can see where they would bother others.

Thanks for your prayers. We believe that God can do much through our church, if we can heal the hurts and the devision and we can get on with His plan.

hello,
I’m curious about this site. Are you here for your home church and the members? Is your church going through some hard times regarding division? Are you making any changes toward healing? I will pray for you and your church. I am just wondering.

Excellent stuff, Dad. Lots to think about here. James tells it like it is. Just finished working with the translators on Mark 10 and 11. Jesus was a straight-shooter and called for total commitment to him.

Hate is a strong word, but sometimes we have to express our real attitude if we are going to change what we don’t like.
