Love this, and mirrors my recent experience of SBC/SBC-adjacent to becoming Lutheran #ELCA. It feels like a safe place, much less ego and show biz feel, and an emphasis on communion and community—one that tangibly serves those around us.

Thank you for this! Grief is a good container right now for these feelings. Grief and maybe regret, too, knowing it could have been a different story.

Sometimes I feel bad that I’ve given up on people, too, not just places. People caught up in toxic spaces. Since I want/need to move on, I feel bad that I’m leaving them behind, that I now, in a way, have an aversion to them. It’s complicated 😅
