In the very first line he says that our culture has abandoned the idea of absolute truth, but I think a more accurate way of saying it is that our culture, in general, no longer accepts his version of absolute truth. I spent three decades following the Christian version of absolute truth, and the last three decades knowing that nobody's version of truth is absolute or complete. I know that it gives some people peace of mind to think someone has all the answers, written for them in a book that they think somehow came straight from God's lips, but I've been so much happier and more fulfilled in life since I left behind the narrow view of Life and reality that fundamentalist Christianity embraces. I know that the vast majority of people who love this kind of message will automatically reject what I say(it is of course, unsafe for the worldview, and salvation and hell and all that stuff are just too serious of subjects to not play it safe). There is an absolute truth. We exist, the universe exists, it's all magnificent and mysterious and nobody has all the answers no matter how much you wish they did.

@darren1967 Pls don’t give up on Christianity. In my past I can honestly say I just about tried it all. Praying you give the Lover of your soul a chance to show you how much He loves you.

[@darren1967]

I've honestly always been open to whatever good comes to me, sometimes from my Christian past, from my study of Judaism and Kabbalah, the sufi mystic Rumi. I've learned a lot from buddhism and science as well. I've been fortunate to watch a thousand sunsets and sunrises. Mostly I just know that the lover of my soul is so much bigger than can fit into any one box, whether that's called Christianity or anything else. So technically I haven't given up on Christianity. I just know that it will never be enough, and I don't need it to be. I hope Christianity keeps giving you hope, and if it stops doing that, then I wish you well on your journey to find what does.

Truly love being able to go every Sunday to watch pastor graves speak. Well at least when he isn't lighting up the pulpit for other axing churches. He is an amazing man who I finally had the privilege of shaking his hand last Sunday and thanking him for the work he has done and continues to do for the addict community. Which I am blessed to have been freed from
