Thank you and Amen!

I grew up in one of those evangelical families. I have family members still trapped in that kind of cult church. My. uncle was a very hard shell Baptist preacher. As a small child I used to wake up with nightmares of burning in Hell. My grandmother took me with her on cold calls to “save” people. I was finally not allowed to attend services in the Baptist church. I am happily an ELCA Lutheran, where we believe all are welcome.

It seems to me these Evangelicals think they know the mind of God. I think that makes God rather small.

I am happy you mentioned Heather Cox Richardson. Like you, she keeps me sane, and informed.
