-10 Joy of saints is enduring?

I've met soo many happy people who weren't, aren't or arent anymore members of the church. I've also met many miserable "saints".

Where is the church's honesty?

edit: thinking specifically of financial honesty - of preaching that the poor, even the ultra poor should give to them, but hiding how they spend money.
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.

I'm not likening the "focus on joy" rhetoric. You have acknowledge and deal with your pain in order to heal it.

-25 for creating a false grief narrative. If you loose your husband and you don't want to go to church the next day that is perfectly fine!
