you can stay or leave

you can stay or leave

I have always felt it is of utmost importance to allow people their right to choose and walk their own spiritual walk, no matter where they are or where it might lead. It’s their right! Respect it.

Did you know it is possible to help people leave the church, stay in the church, stay away from the church, return to the church, or to become an atheist, or to choose another religion? It’s their choice. Respect it.

Yesterday I got two separate emails from two different people. I kind of shook my head at how much different they are. I’ve taken a sentence out of each of them for you to read:

I feel you played a huge part in us growing away from the church and I want to thank you for that!

But I want to acknowledge that your art gave me the courage to sort of follow the route ahead, even if I started to see that I was re-gravitating towards Church.

But when I thought about it, I realized that they are essentially the same. These two different people found the courage, the independence and the joy of making their own spiritual choice. Respect it.

You are free to walk your own spiritual walk. You have the right to take the path that has been laid out before you. It’s your privilege and responsibility to stand where you want. Be confident but not proud. Be courageous but not careless. Be wise but not cocky.

Respect yourself.
