That and the purple haired oriental woman trying to perform an exorcism on me for being bad, made me feel I was copping everyone's happy buzz. Once again, I ruined it for everybody. There were good parts, some things I will always treasure. But I would suggest you brush up on your social skills and masking before attending. There is no "come as you are," for those with anxiety. <br /><br />Strangely enough, the Lord gave me Isaiah 53:3-5 after I came home.<br /><br />I hear ya, Lord.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29560222.post-29185657753884889452024-02-19T11:59:14.008-05:002024-02-19T11:59:14.008-05:00The people in the group need to know that they are...The people in the group need to know that they are to prideful in talking about there religion to others.

I do agree there is a lot of overlap in the heart and I do believe real love shines through. What is hilarious, is that I have taken “many roads” and they all lead me to “You” is “You” is Jesus. Hahaha. I still love the music, I’m just mindful of where I put my gratitude and worship.

This is so important, and it is truly helpful (through both the positive and negative experiences) mainly BECAUSE of the secretive nature of the Cursillo experience. Again, I feel that is one of its tragic flaws. Good intentions perhaps, very poor execution. <br /><br />"So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36The Heart of Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13574967898452086642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29560222.post-32510112587303431292014-04-02T18:19:19.344-04:002014-04-02T18:19:19.344-04:00My thoughts?

I was held against my will, not allowed to be alone (there was always someone hovering), lied to, manipulated and, most importantly, I was physically restrained (yep) and then told by a "pastor" I did not have Jesus in me. Oh Jesus was in me alright, He was the one holding back that f-bomb!<br /><br />I'd been saved for 10 years at that time, heavy volunteering in my church and walking the walk. There was not then, nor is there now any doubt who lives in me.<br /><br />I still have bad dreams from the experience, and when I'm around some of the ladies who refused to let us out of the room to use the bathroom (yes, that happened... They stood in front of the doors and wouldn't budge), who attend my church, my guard goes up. I went 2&1/2 years ago and I still get nervous around them and tell myself that I'm free and able to walk away at any time now.<br /><br />Their "mountain top experience" was nothing new to me... I experience those feelings when I sing on worship team and sometimes during prayer. And at those times I am neither sleep deprived or on a sugar high. Experiencing God isn't about feelings, in my opinion, though "feeling" His presence IS amazing, to say the least!<br /><br />Sorry to be so harsh, but this needs to get out there. Besides, most of the Cristo ppl from my church don't do much volunteering except within the Cristo community. And they'll skip church events if it coincides with a Cristo event. <br /><br />As you can see, I'm not a fan.<br /><br />Ps. Disturbing statement I heard today from one of the Cristo workers who will be giving a Rollo (teaching with personal story) on the next weekend: I'm going to act just like a candidate, I'm going to keep to myself, remain quiet and pretend to be one of them so when they see I'm not they'll be really surprised!<br /><br />Yeah. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29560222.post-22881931593098760102014-04-01T15:08:01.110-04:002014-04-01T15:08:01.110-04:00I'll pray Matt, for reverence, respect, and se...I'll pray Matt, for reverence, respect, and sensitivity for every human person. I don't believe there is a more loving response to the sexual questions, confusion, and wounds of our day than the authentically Catholic response, found in the Catholic Catechism (http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM) and in Blessed John Paul II's Theology of the Body (http://thetheologyofthebody.com)<br /><br />Peace,<br />Bill The Heart of Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13574967898452086642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29560222.post-80092204685186439482014-04-01T14:42:53.955-04:002014-04-01T14:42:53.955-04:00Thank you for this concise analysis.

I wanted to post here, or somewhere, a note so readers understand that this issue is also happening at the new and still small Catholic High School near Charlotte, which opened three years ago as a "fix" to the issue of unfaithful Catholic high schools. Albeit on a smaller scale, that school is dealing with these matters in still a mostly "in-house" way. Now, of course, everyone is focused on CCHS, but prayers need to come for Christ the King Catholic High School as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29560222.post-15295549612630425812014-03-30T11:34:02.410-04:002014-03-30T11:34:02.410-04:00So very important to speak for the faithful.

We are continually being told what our Church teaches by those that have not taken the time to pay attention or listen to what the Church actually teaches.

I've always bristled a bit at that description of St. Joseph, as Jesus foster-father, as it somehow lessened his role in Jesus' life - yet he is upheld as a patron of foster and adoptive fathers, so it didn't seem right to drop the "foster" either.<br /><br />Sometimes it's the obvious staring me right in the face that I totally miss.
