I feel the same way. I have been reading a lot of books on the subject and have found one recently (finished it today) that I really like. It’s called “Not the Religious Type: confessions of a turncoat atheist” by Dave Schmelzer
It’s a really difficult book to paraphrase, The core of it is one man’s experiences finding out that there is a Jesus and a God..but, the “religion” is where everything gets messy. It’s an easy read and it really made me think. You should read it.

interesting post. don’t be afraid to hit on this topic more. i think most of us out there are asking similar questions. as for me, i would have to say i fall into the “i believe in jesus but not necessarily as the church teaches him.” i grew up in church. did sunday school, youth group, the whole nine yards but i found myself asking, “is there something more?” as i studied the life of jesus, he seemed to answer some of those questions and i found it had nothing to do with being in a pew on sundays. i read things like love your neighbor as yourself. be kind, generous, unselfish, helpful and forgiving. that seemed more like a message i could give my life to.
i still have tons of questions though and have just decided that spiritual life is messy and full of turns and twists.

keep walking sister….

It doesn’t matter where it comes from (God, your subconscious, the heavens, coincidence….) it came to you for a reason. Go with it!

Gotta love the Universe!

Love ya!

I’m a mom who had a spiritual awakening seven years ago where my soul told me I’d write a book about group reincarnation and rock music. Yikes! What a wacky vision of the future. But that book was recently published a few months and all I know is that my last name, Faeth (pronounced faith), has been tested on a daily basis. But my experiences and the synchronicities which have unfolded along my journey undeniably point in the direction of a soul that returns to earth numerous times to learn, grow and co-create. And we apparently return with lots of other souls we knew, not only our families, but maybe even your favorite rock band!

The subconscious mind (which in my experience is a hotline to the soul) absolutely nudges us and gives us guidance all of the time. When I pay attention to those signs, tinglings and synchronicities, miracles do unfold.

I like to believe in a higher power or force — in fact, I almost believe that there has to be. But I don’t think it’s possible for any mere mortal to understand these things –at least not on this side of creation — so I tend to believe that all organized religions are just human beings’ creations to try to make sense of things or add order to their lives. That being said, I’m glad my younger sons and my husband still go to church and find comfort there–and I join them on holidays for tradition’s sake.
