I looked the part, sang in the choir, worshipped and would be blessed, but it was "at church" - - we weren't taught to make it personal. It was after I went to Bible school that I stopped playing church and found out for myself what it was all about.

It's probably something you could never relate to because you didn't grow up in the church like I did.
I don't mean that negatively but, if others are honest - they will admit to it being this way for them too.
I understand, Renda. You've made that point before and I think that I can agree - I think. (lol)

It's just that I was raised a staunch Catholic and I never played church even as a child. I took all of it very seriously.

BUT, I know that every child must find God for themselves - in every religion. We can't live off of our parent's or our peer's relationship.
