Take Me To Church... [hesitant yet hopeful]

A blip in my camera roll of me heading into music practice Sunday with my iPad and in-ears in hand.

Two years ago I never thought I’d fit into a church community again feeling a little burnt out, disconnected in a pandemic and not identifying with North American evangelism. A year ago, I found a church community for my family and while hesitant and still very much deconstructing, we found a humble, loving faith-based community that’s brought healing. For the first time, I’m not trying to fit into a box, but be fully myself even when there is tension within Christian culture looking to Jesus over customs. Six months ago, I accidentally sort of got involved in worship leading again and it’s been both scary but rewarding to use my gifts to honour God-plus it’s fun playing with a team again!

Unsure of why I’m posting this while watching “Shiny Happy People” lol… my upbringing wasn’t quite as fundie as that but I did go to the once well-renown Hillsong… anyways I’m glad I’ve been able to rebuild my faith, find community and get involved in a healthy way.

Sending love, light and respect to everyone.
