CP,It seems like you're working against the current where you are! There must be some good reasons why you stay there. Are there many in your church who are troubled by the situation there? We will keep you & your church in our prayers!
CPHave you read any of Lewis books such as "Mere Christianity"?His conversion story is very interesting. He was an avowed atheist before becoming a Christian.Sometimes the overly critical spirit of some on this board is quite troubling. Many have come to know Christ by reading Lewis.
i have read the book only because I saw that it was quoted so much by our people... my take away feeling is that this book is for atheists... that maybe it will get them to think logically about good and where it must come from... for atheists, I believe it might be a first step...as for us, I think it should have no place in our quarterlies and writings...
