The Purpose Driven Life Chapter 21

This chapter is not applicable to me since I don't have a church family so I decided to skip it.

The Purpose Driven Life Chapter 20

"our ability to get along with others is a mark of our spiritual maturity"
I definitely need to work on this and I need to stop discarding one of my most important relationships so easily.
I'm surprised how good it felt to apologize.

The Purpose Driven Life Chapter 19

I wish "friends" nowadays made time for their friends rather than brushing them off to a time of their own convenience.

The Purpose Driven Life Chapter 17

I don't appreciate how Warren goes on in such a biased manner about the greatness of churches while not addressing any of the negative issues such as the many instances of sexual abuse of children by high-up members of the Church. How am I supposed to put my trust into the Church as Christ's body here on Earth if the people that lead it cannot be depended upon to lead with morality?

Okay and church attenders who don't participate are like couples that live together without marriage and both are negative? The further I get into this book, the more Warren seems to have the capacity to annoy me with his narrow viewpoint. I think it's possible to be a Christian without being so pig-headed.
