GCS is good. Why not merely "Christian Solidarity"? -

I just started reading Jeremiah, and seeing the LORD bolster Jeremiah's confidence gave me some encouragement in going forward with the Truth of the Gospel in these thieves' dens.
My faith in in Christ, and I've studied enough apologetics not to doubt the veracity of the Triune God of the universe and His word in Scripture. If anything, this ordeal, as you said, bolsters my discernment skills.
Leviticus is a bit of a slog, but I've found it helps to read it as the document that it is - a series of legal policies and religious ritual descriptions - and to imagine the slog the priests and judges had to go through to follow the Mosaic Law. Spend some time among cows or goats or sheep if you haven't; watch a slaughterhouse demonstration. These men were beastly strong and had to do these (bizarre to us) rituals day in and day out. Thanks be to God we're free from that via Christ's atonement at the cross and His resurrection at the empty tomb. -

> Bible study and fellowship with other Christians
I read my Bible daily (usu. 1-2 chapters per day from an interlinear Bible with exegetical commentaries on the more oblique words, phrases, and passages). Fellowship with other Christians is more difficult. I'm not a part of an off-Sunday Bible study group or anything, and it's difficult for me to make friends in general. -

This incident has taught me two things:
1. Look into the pastor's history; see where he studied and what his writings say about the Gospel (first and foremost) AND how he addresses the current zeitgeist
2. Look into the connections the congregation has with other organizations; I also just learned that the congregation I left is a part of a larger organization primarily funded by pro-immigration and pro-black "charities"
I've been listening to Corey J. Mahler's Stone Choir podcast, and he mentions "the genealogy of ideas". If a "pastor" is using Marxist rhetoric or Marxist talking points, that should raise some red flags. -

Officially on the hunt for a new congregation. Found out the head pastor of the one I was attending for three years uses Marxist talking points when it comes to race. Not having that. Please pray for me, guys.

I have lots of PDFs of books on game design if you're interested. I also wrote and studied papers on the video game medium and am of the Jesper Juul school of thought on the matter. If you need help with pinpointing the focus of your game, please keep me in mind.
