did this for a poster for church 
not the place to get in it but if you do a search for post with the word "church" under my name you'll get the gist of what we're like, alsoBen79 wrote:Nice. For church? What will you do with it? You could use it to instill fear into ignorant, suggestible people as a means of controlling them but then this thread would have to be moved to the 'propoganda shack'.
Dude leading this series wrote:I struggle with sin. Not so much the doing of it, though I do my fair share, but the naming of it. I struggle with how to talk about sin or think about sin. Like many of us, I grew up in a church that used guilt and shame to win conversions. And, after the conversion, the guilt and shame never stopped, leading to many tearful walks down many aisles hoping that this time would finally work. Sin was an affliction and Jesus was the cure, but I never felt cured. Instead, I just gave up, decided to find my own way. There had to be a better way, a new way.
