[Faith-Talk] Quick Responses

[sheila leigland]

t these are great points. It is so important to be in church on a 
regular basis because firstly this is what the Lord expects of us and 
secondly people don't get to know those of us and what we are capable 
of, if, we choose not to be there and also if disagreements happen we 
need to take any responsibility for our part of the problem and have 
courage enough to speak with the church leadership in a loving and 
respectful way in other words, treat others the way you want to be treated.
