Its whats lead you to this awesome message of God's unending grace for everyone. And its okay to question that, even if it comes from other people's disagreement. Doubting leads to searching which either leads to the truth or a strengthening of your convictions. Both of which are great and important things for anyone, especially a spiritual leader. So hang in there, and have faith that God will keep you on track and that one day hopefully these negative people will come to know God the way you and Revolution are teaching us to know God. Plus, even if they don't get it now, at the very least they'll get it after they're dead.... For every person on the internet who says something hateful and cruel, there is another person whose life has been forever changed by Revolution's message. For all of us that have been victimized by other churches' messages of hate and finally found our way here, thanks for sometimes feeling discouraged and questioning your message. From that, you've found us some pretty great cures to all the fear the traditional church has fed us. In other words, you're super rad and if I hadn't found Revolution, I would be a very sad and conflicted girl. So...thanks! P.S. Oh! Thanks for recognizing us online folks! I'm trying to make it out to the church this summer (and see a bit of New York), but Wisconsin is some what of a trek from you guys, so we'll see.
