gotta quote it... Welton Gaddy

[handmade34]

"If she opened her eyes, maybe we can too" Mr Gaddy is one of my favorites!!!

1. Me too... I really wish...

that those here who have been left feeling so abused by the XIAN fundies and thus, understandably angered towards most or all forms of religion, could hear from him. He used to have a show on Air America Radio, just full of common sense, compassion and progressive religious attitudes, not preaching and very eucumenical/nondenominational.

2. I was on track to become a pastor

and my husband passed away and complications caused me to change direction... There is very much I dislike about the church but there is value in community and shared experience that we are missing in any healthy way... Welton Gaddy is everything that is good aboout the church.

3. I agree with you on Gaddy.

And, my sympathies on your loss.

4. And he really pushed to be able to get that in before Rachel shut

him off. She just smiled.
