Hi Joe,
Wow, how neat to get to meet Nelson, Gena, and Craig in person...all in the family, only from diff parts of the country and world. I have only been able to meet with one sister and that is our Carol from Texas. We got together at my home last year, but I don't get to see her as often as I would like to.
...and then there is Joe and his family whom has been so gracious to invite us to come for a visit when we take Daniel to Disney (which btw, Joe, I did have to extend that date for another year...so, we have till the end of March to go to Disney)...so, I haven't forgotten your kind invitation to come and visit you and your family....thank God that we (here at BT) have REAL FAMILIES here and that we know them before we meet them in person...God is sooooo Good :D!

Thanks for sharing Joe. It felt like I was right there in that Italian Restaurant!

Hi Arc,
You are so right about that, I have no doubt our waitress will look back fondly at the memory of her happy little customer far after than those dollars are spent and forgotten!

Hi Susan,
It has always been a fantastic experience to visit with my brothers and sisters from the Forum whether it be privately or at the Conferences, there is an immediate kinship through the Spirit of Christ that to me is undeniable.
My wife who is not a member (but has now left the Baptist church) is in total agreement as well, she has been to two Conferences (4 for me) and has visited with members both here and there sees the same thing, she says the people at Bible Truths seem to be so much more genuine in their search than the people she met at all the different churches she has attended over the years.
Of course we are not perfect but we are not just going through the motions in our spiritual walks, we have a sincere desire to know Christ and that does come through loud and clear when we are fellowshipping together whether it be just 2 or 3 of us or 100 at a Conference.
Thank you all for your responses.
Peace,
Joe

Praise God Joe that your wife has come out of the Baptist Church finally. That is a huge step...was this recently? (I have missed so much in the past several months since dh has taken a job in New Mexico and we are traveling alot to keep our little family intact!) But I am glad that y'all have been ableto meet lots ofthe brethren in person....If it weren't for this forum, I would be SOOOO LONELY for fellowship with like minded believers. As you say, you can tell the difference pretty much immediately when you meet a real believer...there is a certain SPIRIT :o that they have...one of loving truth!
Joe, YOU MEAN THAT YOU AREN'T PERFECT??? :-[ :) ;) ;D:( >:(
be blessed everyone!
