This is a strange and dying church--- Having been associated with this church for 35 years (since childhood) I found myself being taken out in handcuffs just a few Sunday's ago--- This was after listening for 46 minutes to a power point sermon of my life in public--detailing my supposed sins, many false accusations against me, and very personal private information all on public power point to humiliate and punish me------ What would be the sin you might ask?? The sin was having the nerve to ask for private conversations with the leadership regarding sins such as not turning in rapists in the past, an Elders wife's lesbian affair with a teenager and other such topics which were hurting people and keeping them from coming back to church. There will be no private conversations about the many pedophiles we were raised in the church with, there will be no accounting for not turning in a rapist--- nope--- they will just continue to threaten and drag people off in handcuffs if you even hint that you know about their sins----- So overall, not a suggested loving growing church-- the leadership hasn't even figured out how to protect children yet. Very sad church-- pray for them.
