[quote=Anonymous]For myself, I don’t feel that religion is necessary as a step to encountering and believing in God. Certainly the Christian Bible is not the only way to encounter God. I start with nature — standing on a beach, or beside a river, or in the woods, or a garden, marveling at the power and the beauty and the miracles that surround me, even as I recognize that each of us is a miracle too. Appreciation, gratitude, awe, feeling a sense of meaningful connection and grace are all important aspects of my personal awareness of God. I read a lot, I like The Artist’s Way as well as books on spirituality — including fiction — by authors from a wide variety of traditions, including atheism and agnosticism, as well as Taoism and Buddhism. At some point I might seek a spiritual community, but for now, I’m happy as things are. I grew up in a Protestant church, so that background informs my values and traditions. [/quote]
