More from Anonymous, "One danger in all of this, and in fact I suspect it gets worse with each post of the "epic", is that you begin to believe what you are claiming is the best, most accurate version of the truth. Satan did the same thing, in that at first he knew better with his charge against God, but the more he expounded his belief to the other angels, the more he became to believe his version was THE truth. He was willing to go to war for his version of the truth about God and he lost his place in heaven because of it."
LOL, we don't have to make a claim that ours is the "best, most accurate version of the truth..." Again, we didn't write these documents. We didn't draw the charts. We didn't come up with the Growing Healthy Church Initiative. We didn't try to sell this half-baked plan to unsuspecting people, like so much snake-oil at a medicine show.
Alas, attempting to implicate that we are somehow modeling Satan is pretty lame at this point. If you can't address the questions we raise like an adult, why even bother writing at all? Further, we aren't accusing God of a single, solitary thing. I've said it once, but I'll say it again for any learning challenged students in the class. If you don't like what the documents say, take it up with the authors, not the publisher.

To claim that this "epic" is only a version of the truth and to liken this to Satan's charge against God, appears to me to be exactly the opposite. I believe that time has proven that the GHC initiative is exactly the opposite. GHC is a program that is causing the opposite of a healthy church.
It is easier to go along with a new style of leadership or organization in a church than to call them back to God's plan for the Church. So I applaud Religious and Liberty for their carefulness and for stepping outside of their comfort zone to let the rest of us know what is going on so we can avoid this in our churches. May we all emulate the following quote:
The greatest want of the world is the want of men- men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by it's right name, men who's concience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. -k
