On Church Shopping

We have found a church! After several weeks of trying out and visiting we have a church! It's called Austin Ridge Bible Church. (It used to be called Westlake Bible Church). Thanks to everyone who ave us a suggestion and told us someone who went to a church in Austin.
By now I should have learned not to say "I'll never or I'm not gonna." because one of the things I said was I'm not gonna drive a long way to go to church. Now I know time and distance is relative, but our church is 20 minutes away. That was a long drive time for me. Oh well. I said yes to moving to College Station and yes to moving to Austin, really what's one more yes when you want to practice obedience?
Ok now for the funny. Churches much like cities have their own culture. For instance in EVERY church we went to the whole worship band wore plaid shirts. I don't know that was even a thing. Now I know what to get John for Christmas. He's looking forward to wearing one. Also, the worship leader must be bald. Prerequisite, no other choice.
Electronic check ins are normal here. Yay GBC, you are in the cool kids church class now.
There will be coffee stations at every church. Multiple ones. Even in 100 degree weather. Austin takes its caffeine spiritually, I mean seriously.
Most churches are campuses. With different buildings for different age groups. Youth in one, Kids in another, and the sanctuary across the way. And speaking of sanctuaries, most feel like the inside of a movie theater. That took me a while to get used to. Cool lighting and loud sounds are a "must."
Yes, Jesus was at each church. And yes it did feel a little weird evaluating and judging a church by one Sunday. It was hard on the girls to go to so many new places. It was hard on me too, leaving them in the care of strangers, ones who have not prayed for my babies since preconception. But in the end we feel a peace and a comfort in where we are. And the girls smile after each service and tell me what they are learning. Success
