I could not agree with you more! Regardless of the point of "scriptural
contention", any response either directly to an individual or even about an
individual must me done in love and with concern about their soul. Tom
Woody is certainly a good example from which to learn.

I too felt that at least some of the responses, while quoting scripture,
showed the attitude of "I am right and if you disagree with me you are
wrong" which unfortunately is what we in the church of Christ have been
accused of for years. May the Lord bless you and Brandon and the entire
family in all of your decisions and I pray that the answers will be in
accordance with His will.
