Life Turn – Church

As I work through “Creating Your Life Plan” by Donald Miller, I am recording “Life Turn” events.   The worksheet asks for a title and a rating from -10 to +10.   I gave this Life Turn the title of “Church.”

I remember the first night we went to a Wednesday night Bible class.  I was so excited.  I remember asking my new mom if I could wear my suit,  which someone probably gave me (I didn’t wear my suit.)  My excitement was most likely because my aunt (before she died), had taken us to Sunday School  a few months earlier to Friendly Lane Baptist Church in Haltom City, Texas.  This is my first memory of ever being inside a church building.  What I remember most about this experience was that the Sunday School class sang to me, “We’re Glad You are Here” to the tune of “Happy Birthday to You.”  This experience was like getting a hug from God!  So, with this in mind, it was exciting  going to church.  I gave this Life Turn a +10!  Thank you, Mom!

 

About David Michael Barnett

I am beginning my "senior journey." Although originally, I did not want to be considered a senior, I have gotten comfortable with the idea. Being a senior should be an honor in our culture. We are the ones with wisdom. We also have strengths that may have never been used! I have worked as a salesman, preacher, and teacher (among a few other occupations), and now I am ready to begin the 4th quarter of my life as a Senior Strengths Life Coach and leader in the Christian Senior's Movement. Seniors have so much to give to those who have yet to make the journey. It's time to use our wisdom and experience to make our world a better place. If you are interested in this movement, send me a message and I will add you to Senior Strengths. Continue on my website and you will learn how to discover your strengths and use those strengths to be valuable to your service area!
