Question 1

There is a part early in this chapter when Shelia talks about the old man at her church that screams ADVENTIST ATTITUDE to me... ha ha. Mr. Hornal was always pointing out what was wrong about Shelia, her clothes, etc. and I know many Adventists have the reputation of this. But when you read further she says how when you look at his meaning behind this it was because he was so in love with God and wanted others to be too. How can we love these type of people better? Do you have a Mr. Hornal in your church?

  1. Hopefully we can just see the Mr. Hornals and understand that their beliefs and backgrounds are different than ours. It's still hard not to be bothered by someone's judemental-type attitude. Hmmm...that's a good question Tori. How can we love these people better? I'll think on it... :)

  3. Yes. That is a good question. I have put up walls towards people who think outwardly all the time. Whether those people are right or wrong we're all God's children, and I forget that sometimes.
