I know that you and I are not alone in our questions, searching, or struggling. I have come to rest in myself and trust my own journey and to not be fearful of doubting, but as far as lived experience and community goes..... that is far more uncertain in my world. Integration, accountability, shared experience (though that does not imply the same experience) are all areas I value but have little experience in living out. Spiritual community and church don't have to be the same thing, neither does spiritual community have to be separate from other forms of community. I feel like I'm wandering through a dark wood and only occasionally is there enough light to see the map in my hand; I have fragments of information and direction but not enough to get me through the maze. That's probably the whole point. Go God.
