Two years ago, I sat with a group of former Church workers, swapping war stories. If you have been employed by or worked closely with the Church, you have probably been in one of these conversations before, where people take turns one-upping each other over how poorly they were treated by the Church. It can be a very cathartic experience.
But during this particular powwow, one person stepped in and said: “You know, despite all of this, I am thankful for the time I spent serving the Church. I wouldn’t take it back. I still love the Church.”
