It it getting a little old to see the posters who follow him around and cry "!!Bitterness!!" any time he starts a thread.

You make it out to be a personal thread regarding Coops past and his situation. Can you NOT forgive Coop and get on with life and trust that he has good intentions?

It is a FACT that there are some who are co-dependant. Why not let the topics he brings up carry a life of there own. If nobody wants to post in his thread it will die....ta da!! Then you don't have to chime in with your own sarcasm and bitterness and make yourself appear to have the same problem you are accusing him of having.

JUST WANT TO BRING HARMONY!!

In the terms of bitterness. They do not always need to be difined with issues concerning the UPCI or experiences within the UPCI.

Bitterness can be found in the home, work place, social group, Family, friends, bad experiences.

We can only control how we walk through these sometimes deep and lonely valleys.

Everyone on this Thread try and understand that we many times excuse the perpetrator.

When the last part of the word is Trator.

Many folks in business and religious circles have fear within because they feel powerless to discuss their issues with leaders.

The first thing from a leaders mouth is "Do you have a bad attitide?"

Situations are swept under the rug because each conversation feels like a trial for your job at work, or you soul at Church.

I sometimes see very little measure of understanding on this forum.

So many folks are ready to curse the offended, without knowing the depth of the personal hurt or in may situations self-blame.

How in God's name do many on this forum really minister to their circle of influence?

If you see something on this forum it may bring some things to light in your ministry and help u recognize how to deal with folks in your church.

And not with the same old Corporpate Influence......

This is what I am talking about review the attached link from a post today.
