Yea it’s both funny as in “haha” and funny as in “lala” :)

On one hand I want nothing to do with the organization that shall not be named because of the embedded psychological triggers…

But on the other hand I am not willing to cut out my adult-formative years or write off something I gave so much too…

I think there is still plenty of room online for people to speak up!

Yes, that’s me. I admit it. But really I care more about the conversation itself more than proving anything (at least in my mind!)

I think you’ve already been in “radio silence” mode for too long JohnY :)

Yes indeed, and it was filled with His glorious presence!

Thanks everyone. Ok, so I was only going to end my radio silence if ubf pissed me off. Well, it only took 3 days for that to happen. I’ll be sharing my reactions tonight.

Haha…that is great, Ben. I really enjoyed helping my Mom and Dad…and going out to dinner for some great food, too.

Sharon, I’ve been with my 95 year old mom in Malaysia for the past 2 weeks. Her joy of life is to constantly feed me all the local food that I simply cannot resist. I now dread to weigh myself!

Yeah, Mark, I do hope that people speak up. Like Brian, I perhaps should also practice the discipline of silence, radio or otherwise, especially when the wife is speaking! For now, I’ll stick to the otherwise. The radio silence may follow someday….

I believe that as one takes a step back, it compels others to step forward. Yes, I am speaking to you! Agree or disagree, until open and honest discussion and dialogue happens, UBFriends is what God has provided for too many who are confused, wounded and/or who seek a new paradigm in which to engage in the ministry of preaching and living out the gospel. Brian, your presence and voice has been a blessing to the body of Christ. And by God’s revelation, may this season of taking a step back be a blessing to you.

I am joining you, Brian. Let’s talk in person sometime…please visit if you can. I value your friendship so much.
Samantha…thank you so much for the encouragement. (I have been visiting my aging parents so I am behind on responding)

I too understand the “Messiah” complex all too well. Blessings on your time of online silence. Perhaps I should join you.

Thanks, my dear friend and brother. Personally, I will miss your enlightening and astute comments. But absence usually makes the heart grow fonder. God bless your time of radio silence in order to be filled with His glorious presence.
