Yep I heard of Daystar and Lee's dodgy son. Yesterday I was reading a
thread on this forum discussing a book about Watchman Nee being a sex offender and a rapist. Shocking stuff. Its a lot to take in after twelve years of being in that group, more than 1/3 of my life (I'm 33 right now).

Absolutely. He does. I don't want to give up on God just because I left 'the church'.
A week ago I bumped into an older sister in town while I was walking down the street and made polite small talk. She made a comment when I asked her how her life was, that 'there is a higher life'. Absolutely, amen, yup yup totally. What bothered me about what she said was not that she tried to remind me of the Lord, but that she assumed that because I had left, I was now completely godless and walking in sin. The implication was that if I repented then I would see the light and return to 'the church'.
I have no intention of ever returning but I also have no intention of leaving the Lord. I just have to figure out how to be a Christian all over again, and what I should and should not believe. Its going to take a few years.
