Randy,
ABSOLUTELY YOU ALL ARE MY FAMILY....NO DOUBTS ABOUT IT ;D  (THANK YOU LORD :D)
Yes, I  am a light in the darkness, it is just that sometimes I am not sure when to open my mouth and when to shut it...the Holy spriit will have to lead here!

Baruch HaShem (praise God) that He has given me some AWESOME BLESSINGS AND TRUTHS to experience in this life.

blessings and Shalom to you too Randy!

God be with you, Susan.
Perhaps God wants to use you as a witness to them at this point, perhaps not. Continue in the same way you have started, pray for His guidance and that His will be done, and you can't go wrong! Keep on doing what you are doing, it's a lonely walk, but it's the right thing to do.

By the way... What is the purpose of this play? To teach about the afterlife? What is the point? If it's not acceptable for a young audience, then how can it be played by a young group of people?

God bless you,
Eirik

I thought that too Eirik.  Also Susan what do you want to do w/ this group, how important is it to you-very imp?? then say nothing.  Not too imp- then why have anything to do w/ it.

I taught in a "christian School" for 11 years.  I was one of the few pentecostal/charismatic....etc in this "evangelical" school.  If any of you know about your kitchen cabinets-Merillat-Mr. Merillat himself had the school built so his granddaughters wouldn't have to go to school w/ the riff raff.  He was United Brethern-but the school was to be non-denominational but definately conservative.  My kids went there as well.  Sometimes I wanted to bang my head against the wall.  I kept a low profile and didn't do anything obnoxious (I don't think).  We had "devotions" every morning before the kids came.  On Fridays, each teacher took a turn to do the "devotions".Ugh, What a snore-fest.  Even the few charismatics kept their devotions middle of the road. When my kids got up into HS I had real lproblems w/ the bible teacher.  He was a 'Hyper-Calvinist" and my kids had to turn in papers w/ his beliefs to get a passing grade.  My kids were to put at the bottom (this is not what I believe).  I would storm down that hall like a mad woman half the time to confront him (Now he teaches at Moody in Chicago).  Well I digress.

The point- did I want that job enough to put up w/ junk I didn't believe in?  Did I want the kids in that school? Yes.  When my youngest was out of there I "retired".  I started subbing until I got in where I teach now.  Now, looking back, I shouldn't have worried about so much of their stuff-  Most of it was "adiafra"- didn't matter.  They were all basically nice people and just doing their job the best they could-for no benefits and a lot less money than public school teachers.

You are astute in the ways of the world Susan.  You will hear God and do His Will.  Don't worry about it. God trusts you w/ Daniel.

Hi Susan,

   I can understand why this would cause you to have a whirlwind of emotion. I think you have gotten some good advice here.
Like you said it is growing pains that is to be expected as we walk with the Lord.

 It is not going to help for you to give them a lecture on why there is no hell. You can't change them, only God can open their eyes. If this group is important to you I would just separate yourself from this activity.  I wouldn't say anything, especially if they already know that you don't believe in Hell. If they have questions let them come to you.

It just might be that the contrast of having this play and you not believing in Hell will make them question this teaching themselves.

I pray that God gives you wisdom in this situation and I thank Him because I know He will. ;)

Maybe you should check out whether or not it was directed at you. If it wasn't, then don't worry about it..just Christendom doing nonsense, and stick to your guns. If it was, then know your little persecution will only make you stronger. But I would check it out, perhaps from the driector, since it seems to bother you that it might.--Deb aka snorky
