well that is true though Ashley I don't see much of the bible being
preached your experience has not been mine and  I feel like I have
not seen much happen in churches generally speaking.  but what I said
and timothy says is totally correct  the bible is not explained
properly and if the bible was preached properly I would get allot more
out of it and  I would get a better understanding of it.  but  I tend
to fall asleep through a pastors preaching a pastors preaching should
keep me awake and  what I look for is  this  fire and brimstone
preaching is likely to keep me awake but pastors who  are quiet tend
to put me asleep. and I get nothing out of allot of sermons usually.
