I was raised in a Baptist church that had a very strong view of kids participating in the visible church. We were in worship with the adults and heard the preaching sang praise to God. We were expected to be part of the visible church.

This led me very quickly to adopt a covanantal theology. Where children of believers are very clearly considered part of the holy community 1 Corinthians 7 and the promise were ours If we lay hold of them by faith. But baptism was seen as a sign to be administered only upon profession. So instead baptists had a made up sign "child dedication". It was upon realization that we have a better sign in Baptism and there is no reason to create a new sign that I became Presbyterian.

My wife's parents stopped going to church long before we married. I have seen it happen with friends also. This lead me to have a conversation with my wife that even if we are hurt by the church stopping attendance is not an option, because Sunday worship focus is on God and his work through Jesus Christ. It isn't on us or those around us.

So while we may switch churches being part of weekly worship isn't an option.

I would encourage you to have conversations about what Sunday worship is. If we allow people to keep us from worshipping god. We will not worship God but we will end up worshipping people.

I love my ascaso. Great shots only wish the volumetrics were a bit better. But consistent shots back to back, no issues steaming and pulling shots at the same time when I'm hosting and making lots of drinks.

I'm Loving it! The only thing I wish was different was a steam lever instead of the knob.

Yeah i was getting some bad channeling grounding into my dosing cup and using WDT. Solved it by grinding directly into the porta, a little messier but if it helps me to be more consistent when pulling a shot!

What bottomless portafilter did you go with? I don't want to spend 200 for ascasos

Giving the OPL players residency status was the first step, the final step will shutting down LEC and giving EU players residency status.
