Does anyone remember that horrible anti gay parade at the Rock of Ages one year?

I think that incident really distubed me, especially the Kids and the firetrucks and all.

It was like teaching our children to hate those different than us!

It is easy to be "duped" when you are young. You want to believe. Now that I am old(er), I still want to believe, but can't. I am doubting Thomasina. I loved what I thought it was, too.

Now all I have is what is. God's only real presence is manifest in his people. (Oh, wasn't that one of those repeated sayings?) Truth is Truth.

Belle, you sound like a real sweetie

If you decide to keep seeking truth on your own, or within a group, I am sure you will find what you are after

Thank you for providing this information- I am still saddened about the splintering of the Way, and I am glad that the true intentions are not to keep all the non-way people out.

My experience with the Way was not as crazy as some of the things I have read. Sure, there was the occasional power hungry leader that tried to run your life. The memories I have are mostly seeing the power of God move among his people. Most of us have gone our separate ways. I must admit I am leery of any and all structured groups now. The money/power motivation can be too overwhelming for any leader.

I participated PFAL about a hundred times (boring) was a wow went to all the ROA I could

ran twigs -even moved close to HQ just to be near "the pulse of God's people"

Like any endeavor in life, one must take what they will from a program and leave what is not useful.

If you worship one God or three, it does not change God. He still works among people, and it is our comprehension of HIM that is the journey.
