Reply #14: That's one that never fails to give me goose bumps.

I'm on the verge of becoming an agnostic after reading Bart Ehrman's book "God's Problem." But the fundie RW Baptist stuff is so ingrained in me it's hard to totally let go of it. The hymn "It is Well with my Soul" has been sung at our family's funerals since I can remember. Always makes me cry. Wish there was a heavenly place where we could all gather and sing and praise the Lord and share for eternity. I now realize that doesn't make much sense, but at least I'm no longer racked with guilt about every thing I do or don't do and live in fear of God's wrath. Took me 70 years to get here. Still not sure I'm totally on board with the no-God business, but if the Baptists are right, I'm covered, I guess.

Gotta go check to see if Rise Again is on YouTube. Could use a few goose bumps!
