It is challenging at times, but how can we evangelize if we are only with people who agree with us. God has called some of us to live “in the world” so that we can learn to live all of His children: the homeless, those struggling with addictions and same sex attraction. We are the Church Militant and we are in a battle for souls. It is not easy, but Heaven is our goal!anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13949508223303086113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-34932509620205029352021-06-25T19:32:19.358-05:002021-06-25T19:32:19.358-05:00Travis is from Berlin N.J. and his family "Th...Travis is from Berlin N.J. and his family "The Clarks" sing contemporary gospel music.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-34676944088806608122021-06-16T17:48:39.262-05:002021-06-16T17:48:39.262-05:00Whitney, Erin and Carlin all have children and yet...Whitney, Erin and Carlin all have children and yet they work, Bates Sister Boutique.

Many places have beautiful Christmas decorations and that can save a young couple money if they don’t have to do a lot of decorating. A dear friend of mine married her hubby in December because he was going off to seminary in January and they would be far apart if they didn’t get married. Their church was decorated beautifully for Christmas so very little decoration was needed. They used the money they saved to pay for seminary and now the husband is a pastor.

Katie will not be far from home for long. Remember Tori living away from family. Remember Michael living away from family. It doesn’t last long. I can’t figure out how these women find guys who will always move to accommodate their wives. Don’t they have any respect for their husbands desires? I felt sorry for Bobby. He seemed lost and a bit sad when they moved back and he was no longer a minister as he wanted. I remember Gil asking Bobby if he wanted to help at Gil’s church. I hope Bobby does find ways to use his passion for ministry.

But a December wedding,how unexpected? This will be the fourth Bates family member to be married in December (As Gil and Kelly,Zach and Whitney,and Tori and Bobby are all married in that month). So now that we know when the wedding will be,is this going to be a Christmas wedding on December 25th,Christmas Day since the holiday lands on a Saturday this year? Time will tell. Can't wait for Katie and Travis to tie the knot this holiday season and see if they are getting married on Christmas, if the colors will be red and green,if the wedding will be indoors or outdoors, if it is in Florida or Tennessee, and who is in their wedding party (so far I know Carlin,Josie,and I think Alyssa from what Carlin and Evan's recent vlog on YouTube hinted).

Travis sings with his family (just like Evan) and it looks like he lives a pretty nice life. Moving to Rocky Top might not be his cup of tea- And Katie can enjoy the city life with his family. They travel all the time now so I'm sure they'll be visiting Rocky Top a lot for the show. :o)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-1815650155364612112021-05-17T15:51:29.143-05:002021-05-17T15:51:29.143-05:007:38, Travis is literally from New Jersey 7:38, Travis is literally from New Jersey Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-6634130978441384742021-05-17T14:13:34.359-05:002021-05-17T14:13:34.359-05:00I’m 8:05.
