pissing off everyone

[mrsvollmar]

So once again everyone is pissed at me and i am not completely sure as to why. I mean yes im challenging phils authority, but i do have a strong scriptural backing. Its not like im leading a rebellion. I strongly disagree with the way e's house leadership is heading and i feel it would be wrong of me not to challenge them to make sure they are

Hey, respectfully sis... me and the rest of the internet didn't need to know all this.

[radiohazard]

Why not? Then don't read it.

Hi. I don't know think I know you, but I'm pretty sure you don't know the specifics of what is going on. And I'm glad about that. People who are not direcly involved in the interpersonal difficulties of a few people don't need to be involved.

So yeah.. I mirror what Pika said.

And Holly, I love you girl. I love your big bear of a Husband. ;) He and I just spend the whole evening swapping stories and smoking pipes of good tobacco before I read this. You know I want nothing but peace and unity in Christ for you and your people.

radiohazard and mysilenredwood are both well informed. I have a lot of trust issues and eventhough i love you and all the peeps at e's house i dont fully trust you guys. So when i couldnt find anyone to vent to for fear of rejection, i went to em and erin. And i'll put this up in an actual entry: i am an hounist person. I dont like bending the truth to support other people. even myself. So this whole ordeal at e's house, its been hard keeping everyone's secrets, but for the most part i managed to do it. But if you dont want to know what i feel or think on a situation dont read my journal. Because any thing i havent promised not to broadcast will be up there.

LJ can somtimes blur the line between too much information and being constantly happy.
I don't know the half of whats going on, and I'm trying to stay out of whetever's going on.
Hope yer enjoying the washa' and drya'!

eeeek...careful Holly! I definately understand your anger...but im not so sure that was a good idea to post that. Theres a lot division, confusion, and pain right now...and being solution focused is pretty key. Thanks for the compliments, they really do mean a lot to me, however, I do not know what I would do in Phil's position. unfortunately our generation has the curse of being pretty anti-establishment and we have a hard time trusting adults and especially leaders that take control. I've been in the punk and hardcore scene for about 6 years, so Ive seen a lot of it first hand. I dont think its wrong to question and vocalize your concerns, but the key is appropriatness. My role as a deacon is more to be there for people then to make key decisions, and I think naturally that has just ended up happening. People have been calling and Ive been doing my best to listen, give advice and encourage those that have called. I know its difficult but try to submit to Phil. im sure one of the scriptures you have is 1 peter 5...about elders not
