What do you have a complicated relationships with?

@4meAndyou Same here. Sometimes I feel my standards are to high, but I feel my morals are more important. I will leave it if things don't add up. Discernment can be hard to handle. I thonk I finally found my home church. The pastor is genuine, kind, humble and speaks the truth and most importantly he isn't manipulative. The previous church I attended felt off. And I could see through a lot of the charm. The day I was baptized the pastor was more concerned with the recording a video than the actual sacred moment of a person giving their life to Christ. He was also extremely short with the gal recording it and snapped at her. I attended a few more time and things just keot getting worse. It turned me off church for a long time. I continued reading the Bible and prayed a lot.

@PromiseProtectionProvision Reading the Bible and praying when things are quiet at night is how I am maintaining. I no longer attend. I have decided the church I DID attend is wrong about a lot of things. Now, if the PEOPLE were uniformly kind and caring sorts, I might ignore the wrongness. But that is not the case.

@4meAndyou I absolutely understand and feel that too. I'm sorry you experienced that. I pray for your peace. Keep fighting the good fight and standing for the truth. I appreciate and respect your authenticity!
