This is what I was talking about in the post,where you commented on how do you know you are preaching the word correctly if someone does not find what you are doing objectional.Something along those lines. I commented that we need more people to stand up for what they believe in.This shows that when people stand up for what they believe and what they know in their hearts is right,that is when the difference is made in the world.We should not be armchair christian.We need to get out there and make the difference that you were made to make.
