have experienced a significant shift in my theology or faith perspective and find myself feeling disoriented and unsure.
Matthew
I no longer believe God is angry and wants to punish me with pain (spiritual spanking, hell). I do not believe God only loves and died to save a limited group of people. I believe God will redeem all of creation. I believe the church advocating spanking children is abusive and I refuse to participate in a church that does support spanking. I believe women can be pastors, ministers, and the leaders of the family. I believe in a redemptive movement hermeneutic. I believe Jesus is the revelation of who God is, and Jesus shows that he is not about vengeance, retribution, or punishment.
