I Knew Something Was Off
Many people have been returning to church and turning toward religion as events fly out of control in the political world.
Patara, who hosts the channel Appalachia’s Homestead, describes her mixed feelings after recommitting to Christ. Over the summer, she tried out a couple of different churches in her neck of the woods in Eastern Tennessee.
Here, she describes an intuitive feeling, perhaps an impulse, that led her to question one of those churches. She says her faith hasn’t been shaken. But she advises: Take your time. Be careful to find the right way to express your beliefs. Don’t do anything just for show or because you feel stressed.
