Each year, Southland Christian Church in Lexington, Kentucky, offers an amazing event for those who face lifelong mental or physical challenges. It's called Jesus Prom and it's one of the most amazing events I've seen a church host in a long time. Love it.

"I remember the weight. Feeling the darkness drag me down to a place I thought even God couldn’t go. Where I was a nothing and nothing really mattered. Where loneliness devoured my insides but no human being could fill the void. In that moment, I knew only the darkness."
Progressive Christianity can be persuasive and enticing, but carried out to its logical end, it is an assault on the foundational framework of Christianity.
