roymercer Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Like many others Bishop Spong has enabled me to remain in the Christian Church. I try to be active in my local church, which is in middle class Cheshire in England, while keeping my " heretical " views to myself. Bishop Spong has convinced me of most things, but in his interpretation of God for me he goes a bit too far. I believe you can have a relationship with God through prayer. I do not believe that God changes events but I do believe that he sometimes change people. Regards Roy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteoam Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Roy I hear you on having a relationship with God through prayer. I need to work on praying but find to be not emotionally or intellectually satisfying but the act itself which includes meditation opens me up to Gods presence which does come to fill a space but is something that is already there which I didn't see or realize.

soma Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Roy Your views are welcome here if we agree or not. I feel we pray to God, which is our talking, but our intuition is our listening to God. I just enjoy sitting in God's presence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
