What an excellent article. Jack, you know so well how to explain things, and this should be taught/preached far and wide. My father was such a person and his influence has helped me throughout my life to not to be offended by correction or criticism. He was a rock! I’m 80 years old now and took a criticism just today from my daughter without being hurt or offended. She was right and I’m going to work on that issue. We have much to contend with when going through the different stages of life. Things change with our loved ones and we have to make adjustments with our attitudes, so growth should go on all our lives. I want to read the book you are working on. Thanks for all you do for the Lord.
Being at the Christ alone end of Churchianity, I get hammered a lot. YAH is teaching me lessons daily about how to contend with grace. I am about to teach a Bible Study group on the historical fulfilment of biblical prophecy, and I will need all my new found skills. Thank you Jack, a very timely reminder for me.
I made an effort today to engage for growth while being taught/corrected. It made the experience so much better. Plus, I could see the benefits from their point of view since I wasn't defensive.
Great article! You all do a fantastic job addressing so many issues that need fixed within the Church!
I saw a quote on fb yesterday and Wasn't sure where to address it, for you all , for the think deeper , so, thought i would just leave it here... The quote said, "most Christians do not have fellowship with God; they have fellowship with eachother about God".
I know you all have addressed this issue as well as many before in your articles and in the think deeper. I thought it would be another suggestion u guys could talk about directly on an episode?!
I pray that things start changing within Church for the better. Like the true issues u guys talk about. Lots needs fixed within!
It's healthy to want to be challenged, Jesus challenged His disciples to help them grow, it's also healthy to ask questions, but that is viewed today as being rude. And that's also why many are leaving the evangelical churches because they are not being challenged, they are not encouraged to grow, instead they are often stifled, held back and discouraged from doing so by being lambasted when they do.
