If you’ve ever been hurt, offended, or walked away… or you’re still here but struggling… please read this. I am so deeply sorry for the ways people have made you feel like you didn’t belong. That is not who Jesus is. And that is not what this church is meant to be. Somewhere along the way, we as members have gotten it wrong. Me included. And I think it matters that we’re willing to say that out loud. Because we can do better. We can be better. We can pause and ask ourselves… is what I’m about to say helping or hurting? And maybe even deeper… why does what someone else is doing affect me so much? There is so much we can learn about ourselves in those moments. The change doesn’t start somewhere far away. It starts with you and me. I don’t just want a church where everyone is welcome… I want a church where people actually feel welcome. And that difference matters more than anything. ❤️ Brig
