text: what is the worst thing a christian could say to you to turn you off?   mav stayed away from church for years, not because of what they said, but of what they did.  mav saw six days of gossiping, six days of not caring, six days of selfishness, then for an hour or two on sunday they were wonderful.   that's why mav stayed away from church for years!  then mav met some wonderful christians who lived their faith every single day.  they are the reason (and mav's offspring) that mavs heart softened to what god had to say.
