The LC surgically removes one's backbone. One becomes a sort of amorphous jellyfish. So it may take time to grow a new one. But in Christ all things are possible.

The one thing that guided me was, not to stumble the young ones. They never should see adults fighting. Only that the adults love one another and love the youngsters. So adults can disagree, but love really covers everything. And it gives one time, and room, to find one's voice in the assembly.

The Lord Jesus overturned the money-changer tables, called people hard words, "Get away from me Satan", but the Lord Jesus was without sin. Sometimes I try to turn over the money-changer tables but I turn over the food tables! Or the first aid stand! So I've learned to be a little more cautious as I get older.
