[Revision of “truth’s” comment above]
– 0.5% boldly speaking the truth in love about TM’s ungodly doctrine, even though they know haters will slander them as “ministry-bashing.”
– 5% Leaving condescending comments on a “ministry-bashing blog,” attempting to dishearten people who are seeking REAL healing. (‘Cause that’s statesmanship!)
– 52% Failing to consider the implications of hundreds of people coming out of a “Christian ministry” in need of “Real healing.”
– 77.5% Having a self-righteous prideful attitude about their “great things for God” as if it’s something they could do apart from God’s grace.
– 77.5% Erroneously thinking that God actually wants you to do “great things” for Him, when Jesus said “Only one thing is needful.”
– 13.4% Making up statistics.
– 0.01% Failing to get jokes.

“77.5% Erroneously thinking that God actually wants you to do “great things” for Him, when Jesus said “Only one thing is needful.” -Too true to even say ‘amen’ to.
I’m humbled by everyone’s responses. Thank you for the honesty, all…

“%4 raising money to go back.”
I’ve kinda forgotten all the T.M. drama in my life (praise God it was so much quicker for me than most, mainly cause I found the blog about a year after I left. A TOTAL God thing. 🙂
But I remember that was THE THING to do after we left. Dave Hasz said COUNTLESS times – “If you don’t KNOW God is calling you to leave than stay. we need you here.”
