@MikeBales The brain washing is coming from counselors. Parents go to them for help and unfortunately trust them be cause they are the “professional”. It happened to Elon musk. It happened to my sister in law and to my nieces family. All brainwashed from counselors. Not mental illness.
Church is a hospital for sinners. Don’t be surprised when you see sin. Focus on your own relationship with God and find your own tribe at church who you feel comfortable with. You can be friendly with everyone without letting everyone into you life that negatively affects you. I hope you find your place. I love my church. Not because of the people, but it’s where I feel close to God and learn how to be more like him.
