A Change Of Paperwork, A New Church

Today I played a game of pure church politics. I transferred my membership from Ridglea Christian to Trinity Christian. All this accomplishes is a change of paperwork. I will be officially off of RCC's membership roles and on TCC's roles. In reality I don't expect it to do anything much for me. I wasn't using RCC for anything besides a place holder for one or two forms, and TCC will serve the same purpose.

It has the potential to do two things for Yizong. First, because I joined the church during one of his sermons, he will be awarded any "finder fee" that the church may have, or at least be counted for him during any kind of evaluation. Second, it simplifies his life by having me be a member instead of an outsider. Yizong wants me to help him teach a photography class, and now that I'm a member, there will be less question marks than there would have been if I had been an outsider.

Have I changed my opinion on TCC yet? Not at all. I joined the church to make Yizong's life easier and to remove myself from the roles of a church that was, at best, doing nothing for me, and at worst, may have been standing in the way of some of my ambitions. So, long story short, for the time being I have committed to helping Yizong with some of his projects, but I don't know if my church search/mate search will end here, or how long I'll stay.
