I was so cast-down, exasperated and nearly in tears trying to find something living outside the LC. That's when the Lord led me in 1998 to one of John Piper's books, "Desiring God." I was amazed at the focus on Christ, the talk of experiencing God, and the living water Piper shared in that book.
With the fire rekindled within me, I was immediately drawn to gather with the saints (numerous ex-LCers + others) here in Scottsdale, and this gathering has been my rest ever since. Praise God! |
That's precious! I'm returning to the locality that I excommunicated the elders from my family's life, and have thought about restarting a non-LSM home meeting where we can enjoy the Lord and His word without interference.
