Paw- Yes, I saw alot good responses to that post..I figure people have a hard time with trusting already and would want to know the reasons for the actual originator.. My applause for your care

Hi folks- I wasnt around in during the mid 80's. For those who where not Corp or Corp what did you do to continue to fellowship or where you stranded? How did it effect your lifes? The websites where not up on the internet so how did you stayed tuned to TWI and why was it so important?

Paw- thanks for sharing with us..I think it was an excellent interview. I think your right about marriage and corp relationships...It forces one or the other to lie to themselves about Truth. Inevr knew how folks had it so hard after they left in the mid 80's... Raf-excellent job!!

THanks Garth- I will send this info to her:)

My daughter got married last month and her Mother in law filmed the Wedding and had it transfered onto CD. Is it possible to upload as a AVI into email? I want to circulate to family that wasnt able to see it. I want it as as a keepsake. THx

dont forget Martha Stewart..lol

Freud??

Beware of your own doings- I have met that very remorseful , sorrowful attitude in many who where affiliated w/ THe Way and behind that HELP me personality is a very hard person ready to snap your finger off.For some Ive met its guilt by association...which the guilt that doesnt belong to them but to perpetrator.Its a conscious you dont realy want to delve into. Without the confession and even with the confession I'd be watchful. It all looks good from the outside.Guilt is hard to face,especialy the load this man must have. Let him bring it to you.If he has a conscious left, it will surface.. God will give him a way out when he is honest and ready if he can get back.

WD Some of us were not around for POP, like 75% that were and post or lurk here. THese docs probaly concludes your warnings you saw coming at that point in your life THis is pretty new to Belle and me, we lived in bubble and found these sites for a reason. She is posting info for people who have a absence of info related to the 90's. Her material will only interest those who did not have material or understnd the 90's or who want to untangle the error presented. I never knew who CHris Geer was till I got here and read POP, like Belle as well, and Im sure there are more. THere are gaps of time between many. Personaly, I removed all my material from my home from the 90's......Its in the city dump.... I have wiped that slate clean, so to speak..

geeze Belle- you realy know how to confront...lol.....the way taught you something!!!!!!lmaof

Oh, Belle- THis brought back alot of memories..geesh..proof is in the pudding and it gets worse..

OFM- your right.....very quickly would thier actions be accountable for..

yes, he did end the way desciples from going that year...talkin about people ready go to mode, they were deeply disappointed. I walked around with a friend for a hr at the roa cause he was so deflated and bewildered..

Funny RR-kids say the darndest things..out of the mouth of babes.. Happy He is Risen Day and all days!!!!

THanks ILB..made me laugh..

I think LCm had a longsuit in Error.. THis stuff is all jumble..I have relearned somethings and definitely thier is alot of Omitence done here just to prove his point. I cannot doctrinalaly pin point everything....he had a system going.. thx Belle for bringing this up....too much for me to chew on..

THanks Johnny- Beautiful pics..the old bird is a strong one...one day we can rest..in the meantime here is a database of pics from my trip with a fellow Canadian believer in 2002, in NS, Cape Breton Island...THis is a trip where we had a moose leap over our BMW as we were coasting on the coast. I know you love water and boats. http://www.pbase.com/dancomeau/nova_scotia_summer_2002 I saw huge school of Humpbacks there..it was heavenly..

"Kept by God" was and is a awesome little pamphlet put out years ago.. Still is my favorite..I have it packed otherwise I would be reading it today.. Its good to quiet down and re-examine things..they can be easily forgotten..

JL You have a way of taking extremes and putting things back into a logical order. I have great respect for you...In the long it could help many here.. Bandwagons produce much more confusion and strife and often leads to more propagating of unhealthy processes.... Paw this mans should be rewarded with a Black Angus Steak and all the fixings!! thxs

Pond- Ive been relfecting on this since i Left in 2000. I think the Cross was an Icon we were to stay away from so we could LEAP into the more Abundant Life..I didnt grow up in a church enviroment so I didnt see the cost. I toook it as a path and a fast one to boot on how to love and serve . Sure I spent time thinking of this but it was not quality time in the sence of doing a word study on specfic things. THe bible is very specific and clear on the Ressurection. In all actuality before leaving THe Way, I started to feel the pressures of Leadership and the directio it was taking people too......many many wore the Cross on thier backs as a sacifice to living in thier standards.....It was emotionaly compeling to find out how much love and grace was on my life when I left. Grace was absent in the Way teachings..it was very harmful. alot to chew on.

extremes are present in every facit of life..Nothing new under the sun.. Some good logic there Johnny..Life has a very special balance...People who dont set perameters in life dont see the exttremes rather there is satisfaction in obtaining it, altho, I think the fix is temporary. I have several friends here who are loaded with moolah , and they are very selfish and guarded and very unhappy on the inside,altho, they will never tell you that out loud..But they wear the fruit of it. THe internet world is playing a huge influence on the older and the younger..instant gratification.....

Highway- You havent heard it all, there is more, but I refrain from putting it on the boards. THank you

My Story: Sorry, about my grammar. This was one of my first post here and was nervous and probaly trembling. After thinking, what am I going back too? I was put on 6month probation, while I was engaded and in the middle of wedding plans. I had my dress and his ring and was in the middle of counseling with Iowa LC...( I loved them)My best friend (believer) had cancer. She wanted to be my maid-of-honour. It was her hearts greatest desire before she had to go for c-stem transplant. I was told by my BC I was put on the probation because of anything happened to her while preparing for wedding or for some reason she could not be in the wedding,THAT IT WOULD EFFECT THE BELEIVING OF THE WORD IN MY STATE AND IN THE AREA I WAS GOING TO BE MARRIED IN. Also, they were very *%^#*ed off that I didnt not come to them first .I told my friend she could as long as HER HUSBAND thought it was ok.He was thrilled for her. I even scheduled the wedding before her Transplant.She was the heathiest she had been in 2 years.She so wanted to celebrate the new love in my life.The day she told the co-ordinator she was standing up in my wedding, that night I got the call...My heart hurts for those who believe the lies and motives behind this awful corporation. I thought I was in Gods ministry like most of you. I almost went into the family corp in 95. I was very commited. I did everything to go back in, but they kept moving the hoops too. I was told to ABS and write a letter every month covering what I was learning from SST and Way rag. I did..then I met with Limb co-ordintator (who is now one of the VP's)he said, he didnt want letters every month and I had to rewrite everything because my letters were filled with emotions. I was told no contact with anyone in.including my fiance. Every Monday I called hospital to check on my friend (nurses station) I found out she feel asleep by calling the hospital. I was not told anything.I sat in my bedroom and cryed a river for hours...I saw my exfiance a week later after being put on leave..that was the last time..We cried the whole time.I could ony visit him while we were dating every 3 wks. I had to fill out a form saying where I staying , phone #s, co-ordinators name.Everytime I went.He lived in the state west of me, 3 hrs away. I had to hand it in 3 wks before I left. I moved in with my sister to get out debt. Debt was not alowed and they wanted us to pay cash for the wedding.I was to move to Iowa in four months after being put on leave..I was actualy on leave for 8mo..then I thought to myself "WHAT am I going back too..Meanwhile, I typed in THE WAY in the search, and I found Courtright fellowship website. I almost fell off my chair at work...I knew I was lied to at that point about the Household of God...never again

Belle- you were ousted, and not active within..dont hold your breath.

I haven't formed any opinion about VPW because this is the first information I have read of his "Doings". I cannot make a honest decision based on others experiences or hearsay. I got in the word in 75 and left in 83 and rt'd in 90. Now I can justify the wrong doings to good hearted CHristians at the hands and instructions of LCM...I am a product of the 90's and mid 70's and have sat thru about 40 pfals and I know thru PFAL and newlife within me was opened..I can only make good sound decisions based on what I realy realy know..
