I think there are two paths you can walk, what you want to believe to be true, and what is true. Your heart may lead you to the former, and your brain to the latter. Good luck friend!

I’m really encouraged by your comments and those of others here. I have been talking with various pastors, and there too I find encouragement to keep on going and not give up. It’s still a long lonely road, though.

I’m not one to comment on blogs but your comments have really reached my heart. I want to encourage you to continue to read your Bible. No fancy reading plan. Just start at Genesis 1 and keep on reading. I wish you would read some each day. Will you pray as you read and ask God to give you understanding? He knows your struggles. He knows our weaknesses and frailty. Have you talked with the pastor at your church? I am not one to lightly advise changing churches, but if your pastor is not available to you or not giving you the time and support and prayer that you need, I wonder if you are in the right church. I say this as someone who left a mega church after 14 years. There were a lot of programs and busyness but no true pastoral care. I am now in a small church with a pastor who knows me and my family, knows my struggles, is available for a phone call, email, or face-to-face visit whenever we need him. He is a true pastor and watches over us. It seems to me that the fact that you are thinking so deeply about all this and saying that you want it to be true despite your doubts indicates that God is indeed at work in you. He may have a long, tough road for you. I don’t know. Just please don’t give up. You can see by the posts here that there are those of us, even complete strangers, that care about you. That is the work of God in us.

I am cynical by nature. Something I have to work on also. Could it be your church? Thank you for the compliment. I do not think I am worthy of a lofty compliment. We should thank God for people of faith and divine appointments. Sometimes God places people in our paths for a Divine appointment. Scripture is God inspired but remember churches are houses full of sinners. That is why we are supposed to go there. We go to worship God, repent for our sins, get the forgiveness we need and get ready for another week. Churches are run by men and woman. Unfortunately sometimes they stray from Scripture and make church in their image and all about their program, not Gods. There are a lot of churches that have changed Scripture to mean what they want and not the Truth. as a believer in Christ I should be concerned about others and their eternity. Truly it breaks my heart to see what you are going through but there is hope. I have seen too many times in my own life where I have made a hash of things and have found forgiveness at the foot of the cross.

If you’ll permit me to sound cynical (but actually realistic)… devotional reading has left me further disillusioned with Christianity, most other believers that I’m with can’t identify with my wrestlings and are unhelpful in their assumptions, Sunday worship and preaching leaves me feeling worse than ever, prayer seems no more effective than talking to a ceiling fan, and I wonder if Scripture is as God-inspired as my church (and 2 Tim 3:16) claims.

Do you do any sort of devotional reading? Do you have fellowship with other believers? Have you asked for prayers ? Does your church stand on Scripture as Truth. I will pray that you find your way. It is not a sham, it is the Truth. I know it to my core,
