However.... I think I have proven to myself if nobody else... that these experiences can be endured and overcome. Which brings me full-circle to my original point.... I endured and overcame mainly with the help of fellowships like these message boards and my fellowship in AA. My church experience just left me feeling like sh!t. yet I am sure this is what neither God nor most Christians intended. It just seems to have gone there.
Chaz,
I feel like there needs to be a "new" model for Christian churches. I feel like the sing, sermon, offering and dash is not good. It seems like we should be gathering together, breaking into small groups, talking about what is going on in our lives and praying for those needs....... I think we, as Christians, are disconnected from each other by a flawed design.....
Take Care,
NMD
