Faith Defined Through Feeling, Not Dogma

Childhood, Family, and Tradition as Foundations

Growing Up in a Faith-Based Household

Experiencing Doubt and Anger

“There was. I was so fucking pissed…My dad died so quickly…It's like the whole thing was so horrible. And I couldn't understand why someone who was so close to God, my dad was the closest person to God, why he would go in such a way…At 19, just being also a little bitter at life anyways, I was really angry. Probably cursed at God a million times…But God is forgiving.” (23:53)
- She urges others to be honest with God:
“Don’t be afraid to even have those arguments with God…He is always happy that you’re still going to Him, even if it was me angry and screaming and asking questions or why, why, why?” (34:15)

Learning About Other Religions and Spiritual Curiosity
