In the baptist church I referenced above my mate had basically a sponsor. It was one of the men from his bible study group. They spent time getting to know each other and their families. These churches are like families so I can see why they want to know your intentions before you are a full member. And I must say we have attended his church and bible study and they are all fantastic people. I wish I knew the bible as well as some of these guys. That's one of my regrets in life was that I never really got to know the bible well.
Not near enough counseling to have children and force them to believe the same religion if you ask me.
Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
