Trinity Community Church
Yesterday we visited Trinity Community church, or something like that, it was about a half-hour away, although it took a full 45 minutes due to getting a bit lost. (Needless to say I was driving). Anyway, it was a small place, no more than 100 people in the sanctuary, and there was not room for many more anyway. Here are the ups and downs.
Chairs: these get a 3 out of 10, since we were sitting on folding chairs. Still if the spirit leads you, I suppose that could be bearable. And they may get new chairs with the new building they are building.
Preaching: The pastor gets a 6 out of 10 for his sermon on homosexuality, it was solid, and seemed well grounded, but he did not really teach me anything. Also he loses points for being angry about stuff in general.
Pastor: The guy gets 9/10 outside of the sermon, however, for being from Wisconsin, and having gone to Trinity undergrad and Seminary with my old pastor, John Larson. Also he knew Laura's mom. He seemed like a really neat guy.
Worship: Kinda weird, kinda good, the drummer was fantastic, but not too in-your-face, if you know what I mean. So this gets a 6/10.
Overall, it was nice, we will visit again, and it has the advantage of being the only church in the area which is Evangelical Free, and the only one at which we currently have connections.
Ok, class starts in 3 minutes, wish me luck, the math is getting complicated.
