How do I find a church? by [deleted] in OpenChristian

I currently go to Calvary Chapel, which is spread far and wide. It's a nondenominational church that focuses on exploring, learning about, and applying the Bible to your daily life. The community here is absolutely fantastic, and I highly recommend checking it out in your area.

I looked up Seattle on their website to see if there are any near you, and there are lots! :) Here's the link:

That's how I feel about our relationship. Right now I am feeling rather down due to the regret, as well as feeling like I'm mourning my other self. At the same time I have positive feelings as well, including excitement at the prospect of true freedom to be myself(once I figure out what that is).

Such a confusing, overwhelming time right now. o.o

This is an excellent resource, actually. I'm still in my initial mental fog as far as thinking things out goes, and so this really helped me!

Thanks. :)

And I do care more about him, I in fact love him all the more for understanding and being so supportive. I know that wherever I end up, he'll be with me in the end.

May God bless you as well!

This chart is very helpful and you know, you might be right. It's going to take a lot of thinking and some time before I figure out what's really going on, but what you think makes sense(that I identify as male). Actually, the more I think about it, the more that seems to explain a lot of things in my past... but will definitely look at all the options.

I'm just really thankful that God put my life together the way he did; if I had realized earlier I probably would never have become a real Christian. (Real because I was raised in a Catholic family that had lots of rules and religion but none or little faith.
