If HAC has changed the dress code to allow pants on females (and I assume HBHS would do the same?), I'd be interested in hearing their justification. Are they saying they were wrong and it was never a sin? Or is it still a sin but one they're ok with?

I don't think they have any obligation - moral, religious or legal - to allow visits from anyone, especially someone who has no interest in becoming a student (and a female who "doesn't wear skirts" obviously has no interest in becoming a student.) I don't see it as inhospitable or divisive...

Even if you don't share their views, isn't it appropriate to abide by them if you're asking to enter & tour their private property? Would the purpose in refusing be to defy/offend? To take a stand against their practices? To draw attention to yourselves? I don't consider the college an...

I have a daughter that lives in Denver and she's taken me to a little shop called Fractured Prune Doughnuts. They literally drop your cake doughnut batter into the fryer when you order, and it cooks while you decide what kind of glaze and toppings you want. So good! (And good that it's 1400...

I don't post often but had to come in here and represent for my favorite Christmas movie: PRANCER!! It's my #1, followed by The Family Man and the 1999 version of A Christmas Carol with Patrick Stewart.

Finally an FFF topic I'm qualified to participate in! :) I have three: The word "Stronger" between my port & mastectomy scars, referencing a quote from Winnie the Pooh (You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think) - a family motto for my kids and me The...

I'm happy for her & wish her the best.

My question isn't about what she wants. What should a church be willing or unwilling to do, say or give to a person who was hurt in such a way? Whether YOU think she'd be "satisfied" or not, would a ministry be worse off for offering restitution (in any form) or fighting it?

Uhhh... it's just an Instagram post that, expressed her feelings at the moment. lol

What if the church & college admitted to the allegations and offered Joy whatever type of restitution was necessary? In what way, as a ministry, would they be worse off than if they defend themselves in the lawsuit?

Joy shared this quote on Instagram Wednesday. I don't think she cares about money. "The sheer act of making the truth public is a form of justice" - Desmond Tutu

I have so much respect for Joy, and admire her strength and grace. Out of the shadows, indeed!

Sad to lose another high school classmate - and Ruth VanKley Ossewaarde was one of the sweetest.  (I'm pretty sure she & Don both graduated from HAC - would've have been around 1982?) http://lairdfamilyfuneralservices.com/obituaries-detail.php?obit_id=4416

I LOVED this record!  If we'd had "playlists" back then, this would've been on mine, along with a few Lewis Sisters records and one by the Faith Trio.  Oh, and the Pantanas! But was this a college group, or a church group?  Because Cindy Lord (far right) was my high school English teacher in...
