Dear Dad
I’d love to just sit down and chat
But I know you won’t listen
Years of experience have taught me that

I’d like to ask you
How much of my childhood did you know
Were you to busy with your bible
To watch me learn and grow

You didn’t tell me you loved me
Because you were busy with “The Son”
Life was endless religious nonsense
It wasn’t good old childhood fun

Were you to busy or just blind
To see what others came to do
Raping, beating, warping
And not just one or two

I’d like you to look at me
And answer did you really know
Or did you close a blind eye
Just to keep up the religious flow

What if it had been my sister
Would you have even cared
Or would you have committed it to your god
So your faith could be spared

If you could read what I read
The trail of tragic waste
Would it leave in your mouth
The same bitter taste

Or are you just hanging on
Till you get called to your god above
So you can tell him you served him well
Sharing his unending love

May your god have mercy upon you
If I ever find out in this mess you had a role to play
For there will be no forgiveness
Coming from me, your way

Dear Dad, it will soon be to late
For time goes not slow
Did you or did you not in your heart of hearts
Really know

Bemused, you are not the only child with such a father.

This message could be sent to countless other Dads in NTM. And to men in many other ministries all over the world and through the decades and centuries.

What a terrible, terrible price to pay.

Like Abraham of old, these men sacrificed their children for the sake of "the call" from God to give him their all.

But for these children, there was no substitute ram in the bushes. In their blind devotion, their fathers ignored their struggles and stabbed them in the heart.

They left them bleeding on the altar, and walked away.

MK here from another mission........you are not alone in your fight. We at other missions have experienced some of the same horrors BUT I have to say, I have never seen the horror on such a grand scale as those MK's from NTM. I WEEP FOR YOU AND WITH YOU!!!!!! And just so you know, there are some of us who are working with you to fight these atrocities and bring them to light so that all will know and justice will be served!!!!!!!

We stand with with you in this war, one battle at a time.......Do not give up!!!!!!!!!

Lara,

Well said, this mission is not isolated in what went on but oh my so many children, so many young innocent ones. I am encouraging anyone to please go to Biblical Accountability in Missions and vote on the latest poll. This is one pedophile, Dr. Donn William Ketcham, but he had lots of victims. Same story, cover up and protection because he was a doctor and friend. I wish I knew the names of people who voted yes on this poll so I could warn all children including my grandchildren to stay away from them. These mission board/agencies need a clear message sent to them and I just don't think they are getting it. Full stop.

Great stuff Bemused. Now, everywhere that Mary went, the smell of "Baa Baa Q" was sure to go.

Someone invited Mary and her little lamb
To the Repentance retreat
But she declined the invitation
Cuz she knew what they waz gonna eat

Said Mary in her RSVP
"My lamb may have a fleece as white as snow
But having seen some of your sins
You have a long long way to go"
