My uncle studied with me (he was one of Jehovah's Witnesses) and my parents were catholic. Until now, my parents are in opposition with Jehovah's Witnesses even though 2 of my sisters were babtized. I'm continued studying the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses after my uncle died, and even though I do it while trying to hide from my parents, I still am very encouraged. :]
Oh, and I went to the meeting with the circuit overseer. It was really nice!

I was raised LDS in a duel-religion home. My dad didn't attend services, except with us occasionally and didn't contribute a real lot to my religious education. I attend regularly. We drive an hour to get to our Sunday meetings but it is worth it! The people in our little branch are just wonderful and like a second family. And through the years I have become more and more committed to my beliefs and my faith in Jesus Christ. I know that He lives and loves me.

My parents believed in God but did not attend church. I began my search and journey looking for the right religion and finally come to the conclusion that religion will not save me, Jesus will. I began attending a non denominational church and I am happy there. I love the Lord and our God is an awesome God!

I was raised LDS, I looked into different religions while I was a teenager, and decided that what my parents taught me is really what I believe. It took me some time to learn that for myself, but now I'm very strong in my faith. I still attend the LDS church, and am teaching my children what I believe.

I was baptized as a baby to a Lutheran faith, and confirmed at age 15.
I walked away from my childhood faith and I found my way back. I currently attend regularly a non-denominational Christian church.
I do not follow religion.I follow Jesus. I study the Bible and I am happy I found me a church home.

My parents were/are Witnesses. I don't think I really started paying attention and studying what path was right for me till my late teens. I was baptised on 120801. I am a happy servant of Jehovah.

I was raised Anglican, became Roman Catholic in high school, then a "soft" atheist in university, which lasted for a few years -- and then Wiccan, which I still am. I understand the attraction of Christianity, but it simply isn't the right path for me.

I had an atheist father and a Southern Baptist mother. My mother made me go to church every time the doors opened and I thought it was all very silly even as a child, but I still went to please my mom.
I went to a pentecostal bible college for 3 years, (my mother wouldn't help me with tuition if I went to a heathen university) and I married a preacher and he left me during the Jim and Tammy Baker era... having an affair with another woman. I did all that "preacher marrying" for my mom...it made her so happy.
Now I do for me and I'm an atheist...all religions seem very silly to me and I won't hesitate to say it. Enough trying to please everyone else and enough caring about what other people think. I see what I see and I say it...The Emperor is NAKED!

I grew up christian. I am no longer christian, I have not followed the christian faith for several years now. I came to wiccan religion through careful soul searching, basically is the easiest way to put it.
