• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

That is something that has bothered me about the church as a whole. If someone sins & fails they are often cast off as a has been & the body can no longer use them.
Almost every person written about in the Bible has major flaws like us in present day.

Lazarus did have quite the problem:p ^_^

exactly! And the church unwittingly casts aside the very ones whom the bible seems to focus most of it's time on. In a biblical perspective? It's our imperfections that qualify us. When the church casts aside the "immoral" I'm sure that's the same persecution the apostles endured by the religious leaders of THEIR day.
