Attended sister's pseudo liberal church

A place to snark and vent about CoC doctrine and/or our experiences in the CoC. This is a place for SUPPORT and AGREEMENT only, not a place to tell someone their experience and feelings are wrong, or why we disagree with them.

Are they fake presents or real?

Probably fake because I doubt they'd spring for real gifts. C of C are known to be cheap and miserly. They also don't tip waitstaff.

Those boxes are full of 1950s cofc indoctrination books and tracts, old Strong's Concordances (because, you know, get the words right), and worn out King James Bibles.

something pissed me off. I found out the Farmers Branch Church of Christ uses instruments. That was a no sunday school church at one time. No!

Slippery slope is too late a description.

They have slipped and fallen into the cow pattie of error. Rebukify them Ivy, but not from the pulpit cause you are a gurl

They decided to evolve rather than die. That is the choice every coc congregation is going to have to make in the not too distant future.

I'm going to stand right there in the pulpit and rebuke them.
