New to faith and finally exploring it more seriously… I have questions

Hello everyone,

I’m new to faith and I’m wanting to fully delve deep into it but I don’t know how really. Or if there’s a right away or a better way. I’ve read some passages of the bible. Starting in John, I’ve gone to church here and there but I struggle to maintain that consistency. I pray daily and before bed (in my own way to god and Jesus). I just have so many questions.

Often times, it seems intimidating to me, especially the church scene and culture surrounding it. I like having faith in my own way, if that makes sense. I’m in my late 20’s, male (for more context). Going through a rough patch in my marriage and throughout this whole process I genuinely believe I’ve felt god and Jesus in my presence. There’s a level of comfort and peace that’s difficult to put into words.

I just know things will be okay even if they aren’t. So please give me feedback, advice, and in general conversations. I’m very open to how people have faith and explore that. And I’m wanting to learn more how others honor god and Jesus and follow them.

Thank you 🙏

I have a question

I was thinking, after reading the story of lot and his wife, is being scared or not wanting to die because you don’t want to lose what you have here, considered as looking back at your worldly desires?

I feel sad """because of""" my faith (I love Jesussss)

I feel very sad because I am going through a few things at the same time.

I dated this guy for a while and told him I want to wait until marriage. he's an atheist, so he doesn't understand my pov. but the thing is I pushed him away a few times because I could feel he didnt like this, but he wanted to stay and see if he could do it. he then decided he didn't want to but basically he molested me, I won't go into any detail.

the second thing is I just discovered someone else, unrelated to this person, is making fun of me with people I barely know about me wanting to wait until marriage (I don't even how he knows this) and about me being Christian.

I feel very sad and defeated. I know Jesus is with me. I just feel sad.

I need prayers and someone to talk to please

dating and premarital sex expectations

I (F26) have been dating thing guy (M26) for a few weeks. he knows I'm very Catholic while he's an atheist. basically he asked me if I wanted to wait until marriage and I said so, I also told him I expect to end up alone because of this. he said he's fine and to see where it goes even though he said he feels like he can't wait. he said he likes me and want to date me, cause other things are more important and he does really like me and he is interested in me. he wants to create memories with me, he said and wants to get to know me well. he told me if I get paranoid when we are not close, I can always text him

I pushed him away many times during this conversation telling him he could actually leave if he thought he couldn't take it but he said he wants to keep dating me. he also appreciated the many things I can do in general (and for him) and wants to """""""pay me back"""""""" doing things that could help me in exchange: foe example he loves my dishes and the fact and can cook and give great massages. he wants to do things to ""give""" me. idk what to do...

what do you think? should I keep going?
