[quote=Anonymous]I am a Christian, I love Jesus and I seek to live as he did. I want to be a soldier of the lord and follow scripture. But I have always, always struggled with church teachings: I’ve been to Catholic and Protestant services across the spectrum and have ALWAYS found the minister/priest to imbue their teachings with some political speech, and the level of sexism I’ve found is astounding. I would love to find a community of Christians that don’t become co-opted by these political agendas. I don’t like how many people use Christianity as an excuse to demean and dehumanize others. In short, I have a very hard time relating to other (mainstream, American, white) Christians yet continue to yearn for community. I just find so much wrong with the “Christian” communities I encounter. I would love any suggestions for readings, podcasts, or churches that might help me find meaning and community as it relates to my misgivings. Thank you so much. God bless you. [/quote]
