Finding A Church That Is "A Perfect" Fit.


Every church has something that's not quite right.  Too short.  Too long. Too big. Too small, Too tight. Too loose. These words describe most of the clothes I try on. Finding the perfect fit seems impossible.  Finding a church that is a "perfect fit " poses similar problems. Our gifts aren't recognized.  Our talents aren't appreciated. Our sense of humor is misunderstood.  Certain attitudes, beliefs, people, or programs makes us uncomfortable.  We feel as if we don't fit.  We struggle to find our place.  We know, however, that God wants us to fit together with one another, for there to be no divisions in His church. This means that we, the building blocks are to be "perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment." (1 Corinthians 1:10). No church will be a perfect fit, but we can all work at fitting together more perfectly.
Christ's love creates unity in the midst of diversity.


Christ, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.  Ephesians 2:21
