Hello everyone,
My name is Carol and I live in Florida. I moved here a year ago from my home state of Georgia in the Atlanta suburbs. I am glad to have found this website of like-minded Baptists. My husband and I are members of a very large church in Orlando, but we would like to find a church closer to home. The drive is almost 45 minutes and lately I have been dissatisfied with the teaching as they do not use the King James Bible and the sermons do not have much Bible teaching. The preaching just isn't terribly convicting, more like a positive thinking approach and I really need a deeper Bible study.
Last Sunday, we visited an excellent little church, much closer to home and they were really great. They had in depth Bible study and were firm believers in the King James Bible. I was very impressed with the high quality teaching and the people were friendly and caring. I have a feeling we will make it our new church home as we would like to be more involved in church activities. I have a three year old daughter and this church has Awanas and good Bible classes for kids.
Nice to meet all of you.

It is nice to find a good church.. My Chuch family are very close and we are close in and out of church... It is also good for children to grow up in a church home... I do not have any small children, but I am expecting to be a grandma soon.

Hi there! It seems like it is really hard to find a nice church here in the Orlando area, they all seemed to be the "watered down faith" types or they have very questionable beliefs.
I am not sure what area you are coming from but I visited a nice little country church in Davenport this past Sunday and they seemed to be very nice and the preaching was very biblical and "meaty". I am planning to visit a church in Kissimmee this week that looks to be promising as well. Then my husband and I will see (and pray about) where we would like to continue visiting for awhile and see if the Lord leads us there as our new home.
I am not sure if we are allowed to discuss names of churches here or not so I will not say their names but if it is ok I will post them in case you would like to find out more information about them.
