Different strokes for different strokes my method has worked multiple times buddy u gotta hear the bad news before the good nobody gonna take u seriously if you out there preachin easter bunny gospel
You sound like a white slave master. It's exactly why people are falling away from the black church en-masse because they're sick of hearing the slave trauma "if you're not going to be obedient, you're going to be disciplined" damnation gospel. Black people are dealing with trauma passed down from slavery in their every day lives, they not trying to compound that with slave trauma handed down to them by the black church.
You may wanna try the easter bunny gospel, ya know, since that was the point of the story of the prodigal son.
