Yes, welcome vendingqueen. This web site may be a good source of help and encouragement for you and your son.

I heartily agree with Ohio.

I'm praying for your son and you. I'm another of many former "local church" members that frequent this sight. I watched the overt pressure put on college students who were recruited into "a local church" to go to FTTA, then watched what attending it did to those who did, and was disgusted by it all.

I'm from California, so I'm not aware of Texas resources for you. But, I've seen a number of regular contributors to this forum who said they live there.

If I recall correctly, OBW, is from Dallas-Fort Worth. Perhaps he or others from Texas will read and respond to this thread. The Private Messages feature of these boards can be used to send and receive messages between members to facilitate making local connections.

I've seen some posts on other threads that mention helpful books for people like your son and you, but don't recall their names. Does anyone else remember them?

Blessings in Christ Jesus. JJ
