       There really is no worse position to be in than to be in a church where you find yourself constantly disagreeing with what is said. That isn’t going to do anybody any good. That’s not going to do you good because you’re constantly miserable, and it’s going to be annoying to others because you’re going to be speaking up against those beliefs probably. Yet, people sit in these types of situations for decades. It is because they haven’t become ‘aware’ of the fact that really the church they are involved with isn’t compatible with them. The solution is not to waste your time and other people’s time. If your internal beliefs are formulated in such a way that is different than what your current church teaches, then why don’t you take the time to go find another church? Why go against the tide constantly as Jesus basically told Paul. Remember, when he approached Paul for the first time? Sometimes we need to realize that it’s okay if we disagree, and that there really isn’t anything wrong with us. We just need to figure out where we fit in. I mean, think about it. No one wears clothes they disagree with in how they look.
