I'm sorry Larry, but I don't appreciate being preached at. I know you and many others believe in Jesus and attend church regularly. I tried many, many churches after I left the Walk and kept looking for the same type of worship I was used to. I loved, loved worship. I loved, loved Jesus and still do. I would never ever say anything against Him. To me, though, the worship in this U-tube video is simply a sanitized version of worship in the Walk - being in the flow (or not), feeling the "anointing" in my hands, discerning the Spirit, prophesying and waiting for the apostle to speak. It's not all about Jesus and Christianity any more for me. There are too many similarities to the Walk. So many years have gone by and I'm just trying to live my life in a healthy way. It took a long time to get where I am now. I try to practice loving-kindness towards myself and others. Meditation is important to me, and that simply means stopping my thinking long enough to catch up with my own breathing instead of ignoring it and myself. I believe that other traditions have much to teach us. For me, the "other tradition" has meant learning about Buddhism and its practice of non-judgment. I saw so much judgment in the Walk, and have no desire to attend church and participate in worship services. It's all too similar and I don't want to do that anymore.
