| hm....
So I've been struggling with a thought lately... I get as frustrated as
the next guy about stupid statements made in church. I get
annoyed at KJV only people, I hate it when people focus solely on the
emotional expireince and ignore all doctrine....
but, being out here in the real world, and seeing friends from "back
home" and I'm watching a lot of people struggle. Would it be
better to just keep cynical remarks to myself so that I don't make
other's image of the church go down even more? Am I hurting
Christ's kingdom by being cynical or sarcastic?
Or is honest critique of the church the only thing that can save it?
Are you a Christian even if you're doctrines are severely screwed up?
Basically, all I know is that there are a TON of problems with the
church today, but Christ, not his church, is the only way, and that I
hate that so many people are driven away from Christ because of
Christians. hey, I even don't like most Christians... I don't
even like me! Because I see what a dis-service I do my King.
Much musing.... class time.

| My daddy had to fly this morning...I am NOT all about that.  Just makes me nervous.
So, 4 years.... think back, and tell me where you were. I seriously want comments from all of you...
I was in chapel. That was back in the day when I was on praise
team. Freshman year... I had a thing for Philip H.
wow. He's married now. Anyway, before we started singing
for middle school chapel, someone came and told us the towers had been
bombed. I didn't even really know what the WTC was. By the
end of high school chapel, they had a few more details firmed up and
they told us. Then they let us go in the auditorium and watch,
all day. It was just those same smoking buildings forever.
All those people jumping out. I couldn't take it. I
honestly didn't watch them fall. When I went home, everyone was
glued to the TV all night. In typical MB poor coping mechanism
fashion, I refused to watch any of the coverage at ALL. The first
time I saw any of that stuff was when Mrs. Buffaloe had us watch it in
US history last year. If you ignore it, obvoiusly it didn't
happen......
Weird. How much things change. Church time.
