Is my liberal Christians page easier or harder for you to read now? |
|
I tried to organize things by subject a bit more. Does it make it easier for you to zero in on areas of interest faster than when it was one long page? Thanks! ~Jen Would Jesus love a liberal? You bet! http://www.geocities.com/greenpartyvoter/liberalchristians.htm

2. I know what you mean. I feel sympathy for the child he must have been |
|
and for his daughters when they were young, but I have a harder time coming up with it for him now because I am so angry with his actions and the way he has hurt multitudes of people.
Just as well that I am not God. Compassion for all, no matter what, is something I struggle daily with.

I've visited a couple of the links on your webpage, but with the election and all, I haven't given it the attention it deserves. I will make a point of visiting *soon* for inspiration.

10. I have to admit, I have not paid as much attention to this page |
|
Edited on Tue Aug-24-04 12:24 PM by GreenPartyVoter
as I could on account of being wrapped up in politics. And it's definitely because it's an election year.

4. Thank you so much for this! I'm bookmarking this site... |

I have a born-again cousin who thinks Dubya walks on water. I desperately needed something like this to gently persuade her in the right direction.

for my site. I have met very few liberal Christians who embrace GWB. And I have met very few conservative Christians who embrace the ideas of liberal ones.
Still, it can't hurt to try. I recommend starting her off with the Interview with God down in the misc. section. It's quite touching for most believers. :) Also, the bible passages are good too. Conservative Christians believe the Bible is inerrant, so they have a harder time refuting those passages than Liberals who feel that the word (such as it stands now) needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
And she might already be a member of a couple of the general Christian forums, to boot.
Just PM me if you'd like any more ideas.
*hugs*

5. Great project! Meets a real need! |
|
You've obviously put a lot of effort into this, and I commend you. :toast:
What I noticed when it loaded is that it wasn't immediately obvious it was about liberal Christians. Since I *knew* from your post, I scrolled down to find it, and for me, it would have been really good to have that big title a the beginning.
I'm impressed with how you have it so well organized. I'm also bookmarking, and recommending this site to others.
Great job!
:thumbsup:

6. I know, the directory to the rest of the site is rather large *l* |
|
But I'll be taking down the F9/11 gif after the election, and that will help shrink things up so that the second title will show without having to scroll down.
I hope to add more items of interest to the page as I discover them. Hopefully people who are struggling with fundagelicalism will find some relief there. (In fact, the reason why I started the site was because I found there were many helpful resources out there, but that they were scattered across the 'net and required a lot of googling to dig them up.)
*hugs*

9. Well, of all the pages, the liberal Christians one is accessed by most far |
|
and is usually found by people who google "liberal Christians", "Jesus was a liberal", or "jesus love".
Now, whether they are folks who are looking to refute the idea of liberal Christianity or looking to embrace it, I have no clue. *g* But either way I am happy they poked their heads through the door.

17. I did notice, too, that they don't seem to have much good to say about the |
|
page. Not even one reference to the Scripture on it. You'd think they'd at least appreciate that, but no. *lol*

12. You're doing your part for the liberal christian revival! |
|
You know how the fundies are always praying for a national revival? God does answer prayers, but as the old saying goes, be careful what you pray for, you just might get it!
I have a couple of links, if you want to add them to your website, for Unity churches, which is also a liberal christian denomination, although they also are a new age kind of church.
www.unityworldhg.org
and my local church:
www.renaissanceunity.com
