Welcoming and Affirming?

We welcome everyone at our church...but that doesn't mean we affirm everyone's behavior.

Welcome......................Not Welcome

Alcoholics.....................Alcoholism

Overeaters.....................Gluttony

Liars............................Lying

Thieves........................Stealing

Pedophiles.....................Pedophilia

Gang Members...................Violence

Adulterers.....................Adultery

People who swear...............Profanity

Sinners............................Sin

Tolerance means we put up with people we think are wrong...and we hope tolerance will remain a two-way street. We may have to agree to disagree, without demonizing one another.
