Re: The Wizard Behind the Curtain
ILG,
Beautiful, transparent post. I feel your pain, and while our course was somewhat different, I understand. I remember thinking to myself whenever doubt would appear "but these men who I love and respect believe and preach it, so it has to be true!".
We are now in a church that we absolutely love, but I will tell you something, transparency is what makes this church unique. Our pastor and assistant pastor make no bones about the fact that they are fallible, and so money records are always accessible and they are always wanting ideas.
I really appreciate what you wrote and I am praying for you, for your hurt, and for all of the people who let you down (my childhood and yours have much in common). God has plan, and often fallible people are a part of it, but through it all He adores us, and the fact that you are here and seeking cyber fellowship with us liberals is a great thing- YOU GO GIRL!!! I got your back
