What drew me to church were the strong family relationships. I grew up in church all my life, but did not know Christ Himself. He was so misrepresented in the religious ‘Christianity’ I knew. When I came to church I met genuine people who loved God and loved each other with all their hearts—people who live Christianity. I was loved on by people who made me feel that it was okay to be not okay sometimes. I didn’t have to put on a smile and act happy. I could come broken and meet a Jesus who really loves me.
