Honesty

I had this bizarre phone conversation with someone from church who said she doesn't agree with all the changes (as in ministry) but she doesn't want to be the one who sticks her neck out & says so so she's found an excuse to go to another church & she might come back when everything's settled down. She did come along to church this morning as she wanted to just check out how things are going & I said why doesn't she come along to the church meeting & say what she really thinks & she said she doesn't feel entitled now she hardly comes & I said yes she is entitled & if she doesn't say it then nobody will know & she said well she'll think about it. Somehow get the feeling she won't be there.

So is it better to be honest & say what you think & risk everyone not liking you or is it better to say everything's fine & just slip away?

At the end of the day though you do have to live with yourself.
