For the record: I do NOT dislike Eastman or Dawn. I do, however, dislike the fact that he has abused his leadership role as a pastor for selfish reasons and he has done so more than once. His decisions have impacted a lot of families. As you all know, it is very difficult to get some people to even step a toe inside of a church. And yet, Destiny Church was a place for those people to start their journey with Christ. Then once the poop hit the fan with Eastman, they began to question themselves. They began to wonder if everything that man that was teaching and preaching was all a lie. Some have went on and found a place to worship and to learn and to continue their journey. But so many others are still wondering. Yes, I believe that Eastman will be forgiven- if in fact he is truly sorry. After all, God is a forgiving and loving God. God has given us a head on our shoulders and he expects us to use it for something more than a hat rack. I believe it is important that the people of this community be well informed of the facts when choosing a church to attend, a church to support and when choosing a pastor as their leader. Ask yourself, is Eastman the type of leader I want my children and grand children to model themselves after? Is he the kind of man I want to be? Is he the kind of man I want my husband to be? For those of you still wondering, I promise that a decision to continue your journey with God is the best decision for your life. There are so many wonderful pastors and churches out there that are the real deal. You just have to open yourself up and get out there and try them out. You will know it when you have found where you belong because God will move you like you have never been moved before. I know, because I have been there.
