Wedding Over and Weeding Out

December 4, 2005 by

Brad (actually a girl) and Henry got married today.

Sigh.

I went to the wedding with ‘the other D’ (actually a girl too).

It was great.

I have all sorts of plans for my own wedding and no groom to fit into the plans. But! Another boy is writing to me online… He’s local and a writer photographer like me- bonus!

However he is totally freaked out by churches like mine… in fact his most recent epistle (the second he’s sent) he launches into a soap box type rant downgrading the most visible of pentecostal expressions/doctrines- speaking in tongues and healing THEN presumes I’m not offended.

Yeah, like THAT’s attractive!

Actually, as a formerly non-pente Christian I have seen from the outside in and been equally cautious… but there are charlatans and freaks in all manner of pente and evangelical churches alike. So I can see both sides,( though even from the inside there are occasional times when I’m weirded out.)

Still, I think it’s a bit soon for him to be laying a heavy trip on me now about my church – I guess he’s establishing the big issues up front… but man, whatever happened to making a friend before you decide on her suitabilility for life partnership!

Sheesh… looks like another one for the compost heap.

    good grief! sounds like he needs to get out more and experience the vastness which is the Christian church …. and you can’t be having someone who is not only narrow minded but obviously not as bright as he thinks he is … you’d end up walking all over him!

    Oh dear. He should’ve been at our church where we got a sermon telling off those who think goodness and love can only exist within our four walls: we can disagree on issues, and we do, but we should be quick to praise good and love for God wherever we see it.
