I think the whole conversation interests me in that in every way and on every occasion God has rescued me and I don't have to focus on what hurt me, but how God brought me out. I just don't see how what you are saying is actually helping anyone. It only causes me to see the pain.
What am I missing? I really want to understand, ILG. Is it a personality difference?
I know a pastor (UPCI) that went broke trying to keep his church floating financially. He turned in his license because he couldn't afford to pay the fee. When he wanted to get his license back, after he got on his feet financially, the district he was in was like - "No can do. You're credit is shot." LOL! WUT?!!
Another District saw how ridiculous that was and got him his license back. Now, God is blessing and he is being used of God to heal a broken and hurt church.
He said he was hurt, but knows that God is greater and he still loves many elements of the organization. You see? He didn't have to leave. He just allowed God to take his situation and turn it around for his good. Was it his faith or was it just the Will of God for his life?

To bad the only part of this post that got any attention was the credit story ....
