Re: Brother Epley an example for all of us.
Just taking a glance at the pictures I have posted on the missionary thread most know I believe somewhat different than most however the law of kindness still applies.
I have had sweet brothers come up to me and say, Sister Alvear, you know how we feel about women but you are welcome to come by anytime and we will have you speak to our ladies...does this hurt my feelings? A thousand times no. I say live by your convictions. Donīt believe in women in ministry? I cannot help that. However we can be kind to those we differ with.
We donīt have to make statements that are cutting and cruel.
One of my boys came to me and said, "Mom, I am going to start preaching that men that donīt believe in women preachers are going straight to hell."
I just looked at him and grinned and said, "sure glad you are not God."
Last I heard about him sending people to hell...
I donīt want my children to be cutting and cruel. I want them to be merciful and kind...
