I just got a call from one of our core couples. We’re going to sit down for a meal today to talk about their decision to go to another church.

I knew this was coming at some point; they live an hour or so south of us and their initial contact in the church was our now-departed worship leaders. But still we love them dearly and really value them.

I suspect that there’s more reason for their decision to leave now, and I’m preparing myself to hear what that might be. Lord lead me, in every word I hear and speak.

The first dozen is always the hardest.
