Care to share ???

Baptized Catholic, went to Mass every Sunday, Catechism every Monday for 1st 13 years of my life. Parents got divorced so that ended my church going. Didnt go again til I was 18 went back to a Catholic church and decided it wasn't for me. At 21 I was married by a Baptist pastor, my hubby is Baptist, so we started going there. loved it by the way. We are new in our town so currently we are looking for a new fellowship, a right fit. I guess that would make me non-denominational right now but I suspect it will be Baptist.

Really though I just love the Lord, and I think most on the board does, so what does that make us?

Denominations? I steer clear of them. They've got too many denominators in them

[irishcowboy]

Upon reading a recent post by KeilanS titled"Arguing Between Denominations, Does anyone share my thoughts", I was moved to ask this question. Sometimes it is only the denominational differences amongst us that tend to cause so much strife between us. Knowing that it is not our place to try and change other brothers and sisters, and to accept these minor differences might help us in not infighting so much amongst ourselves. Being global, and the fact that we all come from such diverse backgrounds and cultures, I have begun to see this as a reality here that I have always wondered about.

So my question for you is this....

If you wouldn't mind sharing, as no prying is meant here, what "denomination" would you consider yourself or consider yourself most closely related to? Even if you are "non-denominational", can you at least trace a path in your mind/history and arrive at a denominational history that helped you arrive there? (Not your reasons or stance for or against any other denominations so we can keep it amicable)

Again, this isn't meant to make anyone uncomfortable, or to be nosy or judgemental. Just an olive branch for all of us to extend in hopes of getting to know and understand each other a little better.

I'll start and hope you'll join in:

I was baptized (infant) as a Protestant/Episcopalian.

I accepted Christ as my Savior with 2 non-denominational "Born-again" Christians

I guess that I'd be classified as Non-demoninational currently

Blessings to you all,

in Christ,

I was not brought up in any religious setting, even though I was made to go to Catechism for a year when I was a child. My mom was a Catholic and my dad a Baptist. Neither went to church when I was a child. I ended up believing only in the Bible and not a man made religion which divided that Body.
