I wish this church nothing but blessings and love, but I feel, with a very heavy heart, an obligation to speak out about my experience feeling very unwelcome after being asked about my beliefs for the sake of protecting any fellow Christian invited and at risk of experience what I went through.
Although the first time I just stopped by to pray out of my own initiative, and then was warmly invited to come to a Sunday service, it was after that service that I was introduced to everyone. That’s when I was asked about my Christian beliefs, but when I responded with beliefs that contradicted theirs and was asked to explain, I was lectured and then I was accused of evangelizing at their place of worship by pastor Bill’s wife. A very nasty and intimidating experience, specially because pastor Bill’s wife told me I should maybe take my beliefs somewhere else if i wasn’t going to share their beliefs. And then to make matters worse, when I was asked to open up about my hurt and discomfort by the cordial person who had invited me, pastor Bill came over to our table to lecture me about how my Christianity was corrupted, told me that I was part of a cult and reiterated what his wife had told me by adding that what I should do if I wanted to continue coming to their church is to not only listen but to be willing to learn what he had to teach. If you ask me, their defensive and abrasive behavior actually felt like that of a cult.
It broke my heart to see that a place where humble and loving people seek to be with God and one another in faith, is led by people who felt so self-righteous, unloving and whose hospitality was very conditional, unlike how Jesus Christ would had acted towards me.
Please just keep this in mind, and may God be with you.
