Good grief! What is it about conservative ? fundamentalist ? extremes in religion and theology that always seems to result in oppression of and violence toward women?
So much food for thought. Having returned from a service learning trip from the TX border, I saw so many people searching for "the better life", going towards to unknown. It takes faith, perseverance & God.
Resonate so deeply with all of this. Still desiring community and my compass to be shaped by faith but not willing anymore to attend church that leaves me feeling worse about humanity, faith, and God than when I walked in. What an apt metaphor for evolving faith!
The map/compass analogy is perfect. I’ve seen that play out in my faith over these past few years. And, I’m going to check out that movie! It’s so true that in those places of abuse, we have to act. Thank you for this.
Yes, yes to all of this. Thank you for sharing so openly and honestly, as always. ❤️ I appreciate the metaphor of a compass. I’m going to hang on to that.
