Capitol Hill Baptist

On Sunday we went to Capitol Hill Baptist. The church started in 1878 and the building was built in 1911. The pastor is Mark Dever which is a man that Ben admires and reads his books. He has a ministry called 9Marks and has written a book called 9 Marks of a Healthy Church. He is also involved with a conference called Together for the Gospel which Ben went to in April. It is a conference led by 4 pastors all form different denominations.

The worship included a guitar and piano and 600+ people praising God. We sang some wonderful old hymns that truly touched my heart. It was beautiful to hear that many voices singing "It is Well with My Soul". Tears filled my eyes as I thought about Dad and how he prayed that he was ready to meet the Lord and that he is truly well for he is in the presence of the Almighty!
