I’ve been attending my church since I was 19 years old. What first drew me in was the passion for Jesus and the heart for serving the community. That foundation has meant so much to me and has played a major role in my spiritual growth over the years.
As time has passed, I’ve found myself in a season of reflection. Not because anything is wrong, but because seasons change—and sometimes our personal spiritual needs shift as well. I’ve been asking myself deeper questions about growth, connection, and what it looks like to remain fully engaged in my faith walk.
I truly desire to be helpful and supportive where I am planted, while also recognizing that growth requires openness on all sides. I understand why many people quietly move on when they feel out of alignment, but for me, this has been a space of prayer rather than decision.
I don’t attend as consistently as I once did, and I’m honest with myself about that. It has less to do with dissatisfaction and more to do with discernment. I want to be present where I can grow, serve, and stay spiritually stirred.
There is a ministry in Atlanta that deeply inspires me and reignites my passion for the Word. While I’m grateful for how God uses that ministry, I also know I’m called to be connected locally. Watching online services has been a blessing—especially since COVID—but I recognize that virtual connection isn’t a substitute for being in community with the body of Christ.
I’m praying for clarity and direction. Whether that means renewed engagement where I am, or God leading me to something new locally, I trust Him to order my steps. Even when the process feels uncomfortable or uncertain, I want to remain open and obedient.
At the heart of it all, my desire is simple: to be where God wants me to be.
I’ll leave you with a few questions I’ve been reflecting on:
Do you have a church home?
Does it feed your soul?
Do you serve there?
And how did you know it was where you were meant to be?
