30 Days of Happiness

ATTN ALL FRIENDS: There are 683 references in the Bible telling us to be happy, glad, or to rejoice. I would really like it if you would join me in my new venture. 30 Days of Happiness. All you have to do it post 1 thing on your status for 30 days that made/makes you happy. Being an eternal optimist, I know how to look on the brighter side of things. Do this with me and I guarantee you will feel lighter and more fulfilled with your life. A positive outlook is all you need to have a happy life. Let's try this together.

Get It Out So You Can Begin To Mend


Get It Out So You Can Begin To Mend

I know many, many people have been hurt physically, mentally, and spiritually by Victory Christian School and Open Bible Baptist Church. I personally was put down often, bullied all through middle school and high school and nothing was done when presented to the appropriate authorities, taught a few false facts presented as truth, and was told I would be nothing better than a “burger-flipper.” The school, if it hired more than just 3 qualified teachers, would have been amazing! The church, if it would have “stuck with the Book” (as Pastor Riddell always says) instead of opinion, it would be amazing!!!

There was a lot of bad that has happened over the years, but there is so much good that has happened also. The institution may have had its downfalls, but the people (for the most part) were loving people, and to most of us an extended family. Personally I feel the church should have preached more on “love” which is not only the Greatest Commandment, but the entire story of the Bible, instead of “this is wrong, that is wrong” which lead many people to form a spirit of judgment. We all need to realize none of us are perfect, we all make mistakes, and none of us are to judge one another, but simply love one another NO MATTER WHAT.

1)      THIS BLOG IS FOR ANYONE WHO HAS ATTENED VCS AND OBBC. ANYONE CAN COMMENT!!!

2)      FEEL FREE TO VOICE YOUR OPINION ON ANYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU OVER YOUR TIME AT THESE INSTITUTIONS. ONCE YOU VENT AND GET IT OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO BEGIN MOVING FORWARD WITH YOUR LIFE.

3)      LET OUT ALL THE PAIN AND FRUSTRATION.

4)      PASS THIS ALONG TO OTHER PEOPLE YOU MAY KNOW WHO WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THE CONVERSATION.

5)      PLEASE KEEP PROFANITY TO A MINIMUM.

6)      YOU MAY USE YOUR REAL NAME OR CHOOSE TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS.

7)      PLEASE DEAL ONLY IN TRUTH, AND POST ABOUT YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE NOT ANYONE ELSE’S FOR THAT IS HERESAY.

8)      DO NOT FIGHT, BELITTLE, OR CRITISIZE OTHER PEOPLE’S POST. (IF YOU CLAIM STUFF HAS HAPPENED TO YOU THAN WHY CAN’T SOMETHING DIFFERENT HAVE HAPPENED TO ANOTHER PERSON?)

LASTLY BEFORE THE POSTING BEGINS I CHALLENGE EACH OF YOU TO POST AT LEAST 1 PRO BEFORE YOU LIST YOUR CONS.

I HOPE THIS WILL HELP MANY OF YOU LET GO OF THE PAIN.

LET’S BEGIN!!!
