Spirituality Beyond Religion: How I Found My Faith Outside of the Church

Throughout much of my life, the Catholic church served as a foundation. I was raised in the church, married in the church, and I always envisioned that I would raise my children in the church. Yet, life doesn’t always turn out the way we expect. 

Today, I’ll share how my child’s journey with their identity led me to realize how my own views differed from the Catholic church’s teachings, and the moment it became clear that it was time to step away from the church. I’ll also share how my relationship with God has deepened since then, and how we now view faith as a family. 

Today on WithIn: 

• How my relationship with the Catholic church changed through my life 
• The experience that led me to step away from the Catholic church 
• My relationship with God and spirituality outside of organized religion
• What religion and spirituality now look like in my family 
• The similarities and differences between prayer and meditation
