#I disagree with many UPCI doctrinal statements but I love the Bible and I think quizzing is fun

they got me again and they probably can always get me again
#a sock speaks#local construction#I'm going to be helping with the church's junior Bible quizzing program#it's been 4 years since I was told I wasn't permitted to be a church singer or do children's ministry#I asked the pastor and he gave his approval so I'm going to do it#I look back on my Bible quizzing days as miserably stressful but there's a reason I kept doing it year after year#and now I'm an adult. I can tell people no. I have a car and I can leave when I want to. I can participate on my own terms.#maybe I can help these kids have a good/not traumatic experience quizzing#back when I stopped singing on the platform I'd sit in the first row and sing at the top of my lungs#now I can sing louder than they do with microphones#but I was so bitter then. I can choose to leave or stay but I don't want to live in that bitterness. idek that it was wrong#just that it wasn't good#anyway I love my hometown and will want to stay here or return here if I leave#this church is my community. I want to have a place here and a positive relationship with the people around me#even though I don't really know what that would look like#I disagree with many UPCI doctrinal statements but I love the Bible and I think quizzing is fun#and I hope that maybe I can find unobtrusive ways to teach a bit of Bible interpretation here and there
