NOM

Well, I only missed the first part. Our plans this morning went much quicker than I expected, so here I am stuck listening.

So, this is actually taken right off the internet criticism of what the church teaches, because I have seen practically the exact word as criticism. But preaching against the vending machine God is good, if taken straight from their critics. For too long they have preached a prosperity gospel, but he didn’t go far enough to say the whole prosperity gospel is wrong.

And I am trying to be as positive as possible. +10 for at least saying that we shouldn’t expect specific blessings in a specific time frame.

Ummm it kind of sounds like we can't trust God?

Well she's nailed the primary voice.

And she starts out in the worst primary voice. -5 for how she talks

+15 for encouraging a more rounded perspective of biblical characters

Maybe the father forgave because he was a good father.

-25 for toxic forgiveness narratives

Sorry I'm late here. Ironically I had church meetings get in the way of THE church meeting. :/

I'm reading through all the comments trying to catch up.

Sticking with Jesus stories and parables +10

Which is worse - primary voice or crying voice?

I'm trying to process the odd combination here. Smiling, crying, talking in primary voice - all at the same time.

Is she a cancer survivor?

Focusing on Christ

God doesn't necessarily bless us for obedience... then

Waiting on the Lord is praised...

I see a pattern. Just love Jesus and do the commandment things and you can feel like crying too. -10

Her version of Christ is a lot better than Christofferson's.

You can't love as Christ loved if your motive is to get them to join.
