You out there Nacho?
Well, I know this is not the forum for this but my mother just passed away on September 4th. On top of having to deal with the experience I went through at Radiant Life Church, I have had to deal with watching a loved one suffer and die a miserable death. I have questioned and yelled at god so many times through all of this. But it is funny that it seems that today I am thinking of God more and more in good ways. This is result of the testimonies on this forum and my mom finally passing. I can tell you that everything that I have posted on this forum is me. It is me not holding back. It is me not have fear of what I say and how I say it. I experienced many things at Radiant Life on the outer circle and always in my mind questioned but was led by leaders that were so passionately misled themselves by a very manipulative pastor. I no longer blame those people as I have posted. I blame the pastors, elders, and teachers who are just passing on Tonys teachings and not thinking for themselves. I know I have been brutal and hurt alot of peoples feelings on here, ie Joe[L], probably Paul C, maybe Kevin. But I do love you all an had a good relationship with Kevin at one time. I always spoke what was on my heart and what i beleived. I know I hammered the baby issue but that was big for me and absolutely blew away everyone from other churches that I spoke to about it. I am sorry Paul and Christine if I hurt your feelings over this. You have gone through enough. It is just that you represented leadership at the time. I do not know where you are at right now but I hope all is better. Some of you may read this and say hey he said he was better and forgave me. Well I can tell you maybe I said that but it is a process and Maybe I said that because I felt compelled and wasn't really ready in my heart. I am ready now. I will continue to post on here as I see fit but this forum has come to the point were all the issues are definately on the table. I have no desire to reconcile and go back to RLC. I do have a desire to warn people and help them to not get caught up in something they will regret 2, 3, 4 years down the road. I also have a desire now to get back to God somehow. Richard, you are awesome for coming forward. I always thought you had the humilty and nature to be a pastor. Talking to you at Safeway the last time I saw you helped immensely. Juice...wherever you are, you the man buddy. I know most of you have been wondering this whole time who the heck I am. You have probably had guesses but I can tell you I am really nobody who was greatly affected by all of the mess. So I think, if I was nobody and was greatly affected then what about all of you that were so involved? I love you all. This is part of my moving on.
Joe and Aaron......sincere apologies for whatever hurt and dismay I have caused you.

Hey Marc,
I am so sorry to hear about your mom.Considering all that you have gone through in the past couple of days, I read this posting of yours as very light and with peace. I can't tell for sure. I am glad that you are moving forward and that this forum has been a help to you. Again I am sorry to hear about the loss of your mom.
God Bless Bro,
Nicole
