If I'm going to be honest with you, I'm looking for a different kind of Christianity than I'm seeing and I feel like what I'm seeing is breaking my heart. People (like you) have a lot of great, insightful, Biblical things to say -- but mixed in with it all is a poison that I've already seen people I really care about perish by. And no one can tell me why this poison is being allowed to be added to the otherwise good spiritual food of truth out there! I've already been banned from some blogs for respectfully asking several times over the last three years about this, I've given up on local churches because the sermons are worse than trashy movies I had to walk out of as a teen and the young men swear when praying (using the f-word in the same sentence as the Blood of Jesus!), and I actually feel what I believe to be a righteous rage towards the religious system here in America and all forms of compromising with it. Please read the following articles about Driscoll. And please read the last (and now only) post on my blog linked to via my name here. No one will tell me why they still support Driscoll and others, the leading local churches are using toilet humor in the pulpit, no one cares for God's Bride. Only me, a despised young woman, stands among all the hundreds I know in our circles of mutually known pastors, friends, leaders, parents, theology students. This is crazy! We can't be of the same belief system! How can that even be possible to think, one has to wonder.<br /><br />http://www.sfpulpit.com/2006/12/11/grunge-christianity/<br /><br />http://defendingcontending.com/2009/03/11/has-anyone-ever-contacted-mark-driscoll-privately/<br /><br />(Warning: Part 3 of the following series contains actual quotes)<br />http://defendingcontending.com/2009/04/17/john-macarthur-on-mark-driscoll-part-2/<br /><br />(Warning: The following article contains actual quotes)<br />http://thechristianworldview.com/tcwblog/archives/1640<br /><br />http://www.challies.com/book-reviews/confessions-of-a-reformission-rev<br /><br />http://teampyro.blogspot.com/2006/10/fed-up.htmlNicolehttp://toventureall.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
