[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wasn’t religious in college through grad school and told people I didn’t believe. But something always seemed to be calling to me. I returned to the episcopal church after my kids were born—the episcopal church gives me the freedom to explore a theology and my belief. I guess I don’t want to give more details because OP will tear into me. [/quote]
Not OP. I had a similar experience and I'm curious: Did you return to the church after your kids were born because you wanted to provide them with a religious foundation, or because it seemed like an easy reason to return yourself (ie. there are more families engaged than childless couples or singles so you have a peer group), or a mix, or something else altogether?

Personally, I found a place (after a lot of looking) that had a good number of active young professionals before I had kids, so I was able to make friends, but before that, it felt so uncomfortable socially (not religiously) to be there. I'm so glad to have a place that I and my kids love to be with people we love and the spiritual meaning I was looking for.[/quote]
