Rev. Sarah Halverson of Fairview Community Church remembers the first time she heard the sermon about condemnation. She was at a youth group in the Newport-Mesa area that Halverson prefers to remain nameless, and she was stunned by its message.
"I was a Christian, but I didn't feel comfortable there," she said.
Halverson went to her regular church pastor the following day. He sat her down on the steps of the stair, joined her there and discussed the Bible's message.
"Do you believe a loving God would condemn all those people?" he asked her.
