The Petra Zone

I think we've all taken time off from the zone. I hit and missed for a while. Sometimes everyone just gets so heated up about stuff that time away is sometimes a good thing to cool off and come back.

It's a shame that there has to be rules listed on the zone because most of us are all adults and should already know how to conduct ourselves as Christians and as Adults.

We all give testimonies of how God saved us and used Petra in the process. How Petra’s ministry has touched our lives in some way. Most of us call ourselves Christians or Followers of Christ, however when something is said about how we conduct ourselves as Christians everyone wants to throw their Christianity to the side and say this is about an opinion. But we are tought to put God ahead of ourselves (including opinions) and if we truly do that I believe we wouldn’t have so many heated up debates that cause people to get hurt and want to leave. As the body of Christ, we shouldn’t allow division to pull us apart.

The DVD will not be a Lipsinc job. It will all be live except some parts will be overdubed live without the audience just like on any other live record. John had to do overdubs for Farewell. CITAS also had overdubs.

Well, Petra isn't a church and it seems rather silly to start up another forum because of different musical tastes. Does it really matter which version of Petra we prefer? When looking at the big picture, all this Internet/message board stuff is so trivial. To each his own I guess.

I believe some of these folks have been just as guilty as anyone else about contributing to what they're complaining about...And I don't say that to slam them or blame anyone. Self-righteousness is something we all need to guard against. There will be conflict when you have a group of people on a message board. It's how you handle it that counts.

Just my opinion, and that being said it is a nice looking forum.
