As you may have figured, I once lived in Tucson, Arizona. Yes, a beautiful place indeed! One day I'll need to post lots of photos from there as I do have many to scan in for all to see :-) However, that's another time when time allows. It's been a bit busy here as a single household & priorites make their way.
So, what are may priorities? A question I'm proud to answer with one word, "Jesus." Jesus is my TOP priority! For without HIM -- I am nothing! Which brings me back to Tucson, AZ; while living there for ten years, I'd met a fellow whoes name is John while attending a 12-Step Mtgs. John was a faithful Christian, kind hearted & willing to help me out. He took the time to listen as I spoke of the church I'd attended in Minnesota before moving here. How I felt an empty hole inside -- felt like I was backsliding because I had now been in Tucson for a few years but had not yet attended a church there. I told him how bad I get panic attacks when I go into a new enviroment alone. ANY place new! Why? I can't really explain except I learned it stems from fear.
John (and many others I knew) were attending "Calvary Chapel Tucson." He told me it's a very friendly & Bible oriented church that met in an old shopping center. Nothing like I'd been to before. John invited me to attend one Sunday & told me that I would not only love the atmospere but also the Contempory music & for sure like Pastor Robert's way of teaching.
Needless to say, I went the following Sunday with him and another friend. My experience there was AWESOME! I fell in love with the place, people, music and totally understood Pastor Robert. I've been listening to him ever since. VERY GRATEFUL that Calvary Chapel Tucson is broadcasted over television & internet!!! If they weren't - I'd be missing one heck of a guy & Bible Study because I've since moved back to Minnesota to help my mom out.
Here's from Pastor Robert Furrow's "It's A New Day Blog"
- Friday, September 10th is titled "Little Pilgram" referring to backsliding ~ ENJOY!
