I don’t believe but I want to.
I’m not really sure if this is the place for this, but I figured I’d post anyway. I’m 27 and have been agnostic for the last 8 years, it’s not that I didn’t believe originally, but I fell away from church after I was outed as a lesbian at the age of 19. I think over the years my frustration with the lack of acceptance and people constantly telling me my love was wrong made it basically impossible for me to believe anymore.
Anyway, over the last year or so I have felt a desire to go back to church, to find that community again and feel that sense of life beyond this, but because of me pulling away for so long, I don’t know HOW to believe anymore. Do I just go to church even if I don’t believe and hope it finds me? Or is this something I need to do alone?
Any advice would be amazing, Thank you.
