If you do that, I doubt you'll stay 'home' very long for home is where the heart is and a Christian's heart is with the entire body of Christ, not just a relatively tiny few which trace their beginnings to a camp meeting in Los Angeles in 1913.
I understand what you are saying.
I don't intend to get caught up in that stuff, but if anyone asks me, I'll tell them like I did before and simply hope for the best and pray for the ones who insist on being judgmental.

I have 2 sisters, a brother-in-law, and a niece that attend Bro. Williams church. They like it a lot. Hopefully, I'll be there sometime this year. Maybe we will get to meet.

My gut instinct tells me you are in for some unnecessary disappointment.
I really hope you're wrong.

It will be difficult-- but who agrees with every little thing that every preacher or saint says in every sermon or conversation?

It would be my pleasure!
Your father came through right before I left.
He didn't remember meeting me back in 1998, and I guess I didn't expect him to-- but I sure did remember him.
