Desire for Community
After hearing your reaction to last month’s reflection (“Let’s Talk about Church”), I realize there is a lot more to talk about. A common theme emerged from your feedback: many who struggle with church do so because they have a deep desire for community. And with good reason. Community can help us get through the roughest times in life.
Let’s Talk about Church
Practicing your faith in a changing world is challenging no matter what religion. Whether you are happy with your church, feeling empty without one, or fall somewhere in between, I offer you my personal story in the hopes of opening up a safe place to talk about this issue that is weighing heavy on so many hearts.
What do you do when your questions have no answers? Or no good answers? When no answers bring comfort? What about when there is more than one answer, leaving you unsure which to believe? Start by sitting with these questions. Let them linger. Give them space to breathe. Think of them as seeds being planted in your heart.
