Official Apology

by Tim on August 8, 2005

I had lunch today with Scott, and he brought it to my attention that my post about qbc and music was causing some problems. At the time, I was a bit frustrated and confused about the situation, and have since then been reversed of those feelings. However, I didn't post about that, and so those reading the blog would only know of one side.

That being said, I apologize if my rants were offensive in any way to you, and if they caused any kind of division.

I also have realized that many people read my blog and see "me". Its not like a personal journal where I can write a bunch of complaints and know years later that I was just in a bad mood. Here people read it and it is more like public announcements of "me". Well I am going to be more carefull, and try to make my blog not "me" but me. In other words, trying to make sure that what I post doesn't make me look like someone I'm not.

I also need to not post things about the Church, because everything I've disagreed with QBC on, I've gotten good reasons behind it. This isn't to say I agree with everything, but I've accepted everything. So I guess I'm trying to say that it has come to the point where I need to stop questioning decisions, and just trusting. Afterall, if God is in control of everything.. He is in control of QBC.. So even if I think something looks bizarre - it is just me not knowing and I need to trust.

So anyways, to clarify: NO I am not in any way shape or form thinking of leaving QBC. I feel God wants me here and this is where I'll be.

Hi Tim,

I had a wonderful meeting with you. I hope we can do that more often. I am encouraged that are truly seeking God in your life and His direction for your life.

Thank you for your willingness publically repent and trust God. We will make many mistakes in this life both individually and as a church. However, decisions that are made are prayed about and are confirmed by many Godly leaders. This surely won’t prevent mistakes since we’re all human, but it will ensure that we don’t make hasty decisions based on emotion and need.

We must all decrease so Christ can increase and continue each day to deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus. After meeting with you and reading this post, I am blessed that you love our Lord enough to not make quick decisions but to truly be led by Him.

Love you lots man!

Scott
