I'm now in a state of mourning. Barely able to breathe. Waiting anxiously for the clock to strike midnight so this nightmare can end and I can go on with my life. I would say "never forget," but I wish this memory could be erased forever. RIP to the billions who died that day.
I almost made it through the day without remembering that this was the 5 year anniversary of the most terrible day in American history. Then the memories came flooding back. I started hyperventilating. Called my therapist. Xe/xem/xyr came over and we cried in each other's arms.

are filled with pride. Men who have a significant misunderstanding as to what servant leadership actually is.
If they see a senior pastor acting with such godliness, they will be quick to throw out a modern-day buzz word like "narcissist" and they will make claims of abuse...

Churches, please consider cancelling your services next time January 6th lies on a Sunday. It should be a day of grief, fasting, and reflection. Fortunately you don't have to worry about this next year since it is a leap year, but on January 6th, 2030 it will be your opportunity.
I have many friends who have abandoned the faith. Every one of them would have aligned more with Chapell's worldview than anyone on his list before they apostatized.
