[Faith-talk] Faith Question

[Christine Olivares]

I agree with Brandon and Juston. God does not judge us because we always are meant to seek. We are not meant to just go through the motions. Sometimes we have to go on a journey to find truth. There are many ways to find spirituality, and there is no one correct way. It is whatever fulfills your need for the divine. You need to do what is best for you. Do some exploring and don’t be afraid of judgement. Yes, you need spirituality for sure, but you can do it in your own way.
