This is the epilogue. In the final article I will talk about what to do now after leaving UBF for good.
Here is some tips, advice, suggestions, and recommendations for what to do after leaving for good:
- Cut off ALL communication from the chapter director, seniors, your bible teacher, and anyone else who is pro-UBF
- take a break from church (by church I refer to the physical building/institution)
- Rebuild your Personality
- take a vacation (it doesn’t have to be expensive)
- visit a doctor (for a physical exam)
- visit a counselor or psychiatrist (don’t be ashamed or embarrassed to do so)
- go for a walk in the park
- get a lot of rest (sleeping, napping, snoozing)
If you choose to go back to church consider the following:
- explore different theologies
- taking a look at this list of real mainline churches
- looking at this article about what makes a community healthy: http://ubfriends.net/archive2015/2015/10/05/four-signs-of-healthy-community/index.html
- praying in seclusion
- getting a new bible
- have a sit down with the pastor to get a run down of what the church preaches before getting involved
