This space exists solely for the purpose of sharing frustration, anger, and annoyance that people cannot gather and discuss any other way. It’s a modern day small town quilt circle. And people can say they’re concerned and offer prayers and dress up their posts however they want to. But at the end of the day we’re all just here for the tea and the Jen bashing.
Who made you king to decide this is a snark/gossip forum? My headline shows Jen Hatmaker.
Furthermore, I like her. I think she’s funny, witty, and fun! She has gone through changes, sure, we all do. I think she’s done it with grace so far. I think if she were as bad a person as some paint her here, there would be those who’ve been close to her who would’ve told all by now. She has a lot of life left to live and who knows how her story will go.

Hi Jason!
It’s felt like Jason’s weekly choose your own faith journey. We just couldn’t bear it any longer and needed more, it feels bad to say it, like Christianity in our church? They were always making apologies for old doctrines to the point that it just felt like a philosophy club. I could see ANC becoming a universalist church in a few years. Ny husband and I are definitely more liberal or progressive in our faith but we still wanted to go to a Christian church. Now we’re happy Anglicans.
The people were largely nice and welcome, though.
The youth group was sort of weak. My kids were teens and they were confused by a lot of it.
The Hatmakers weren’t ever around.
Yes! Choose your own faith is spot on.
It’s sad, actually, because the Hatmakers got that building for FREE by switching denominations to be Methodist and pushing out an established (but small and old) congregation. Now they use the church as a music venue side hustle and spout off that Jesus isn’t necessarily the son of God.
There are really good church plants in Austin and I keep waiting for the UMC to get smart and show them the walking papers.

The criminal arrest thing was really being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

BTW, search Drew King arrest and see two mug shots come up. These Kings seem pretty proud of their criminal history.
