He knows he doesn't have my approval, and everyong we know knows I don't condone it... but I'm just trying to love on him until Jesus says distance yourself.

And to the person who asked why he was invited? The pastor of this church is his uncle..... yep, his uncle!!!!!!!

Well...I was trying to figure out what could have possibly made him feel so "at home" by laying into the congregation with his testimony.

Here it is...pastor is his uncle.

I've found that people say and do hurtful things more to family than to their peers because they have this so-called "safe feeling". They know how much they can get away with...sometimes even with outrageous behavior, their family forgives them.

Would he have done this in one of the larger churches to congregations who would not have put up with it?

So...he dug his hole, now he will have to eat crow with his family, unless they let him get by with his actions.

Sincere new converts will not let this fiasco deter them from living for God. God still takes care of His little ones.
