the glory is here

No I am not celebrating woman's week just that this week, my major thoughts seem to center around women. (Which issue isn't)?

Having read Margaret Wanjiru's story (She is a big time evangelist in Kenya) and all her recent drama - denying her previous husband and putting both her feet in her mouth, oh and her bodyguards assaulting a journalist. With all the drama in churches, I should seriously consider which churches to attend. I rarely have time to watch TV dramas and go to church and it would be pretty cool to get both at once.

It is funny and/or shocking looking at religious drama from the outside. However, I can hardly imagine how hard it is to be part of the drama. For many people, their religious fellowships are a place to get spiritual nourishment and a place they can listen to their hearts, cry when they need to and shed a tear without anyone looking at them strangely. When this safety is violated, it affects people's sense of security and puts them in the defensive as they have to take sides. It is easy for the congregation to change churches but what happens to the leaders? Disappear? Lose their faith?

Religion shapes us in a special way and help create some values in our lives. While we may expect religious leaders to be above reproach, we should remember that they are human.

Wanjiru, even if things do not work out, do not disappear.

PS: I have taken PR courses and would be more than glad to help you, plus, I bet you pay good. I need some cash money sister!!
