My husband in no way wants to try the LDS church again. I asked him if it was ok if I went back and he didn't like that idea at all. He does not have a Christian background of any kind. So we have been going to a lovely Baptist Church and I figure thats a start. What he has said is he doesnt like the rituals in the LDS church. The garments worn for the temple, the things said. Its makes him uncomfortible and he says we shouldnt have to do that stuff, that its all the mark of a cult.

I understand why one could think that but I also believe doing ceremonious things are a way to bring us closer to God. He is turned off by the idea that people who have behaved in a certain way can be exhiled from the church. He believes that is only between God and the individual. I dont know enough to be able to tell him differently. I just ask him to respect my faith journey as I have respected his but he is determined to keep me away from it all.

There are things in the bible he doesnt like or agree with. He hasnt been satisfied that the real God is 100% the God of the bible.

I am afraid to push it and push him away from all of Christianity. He believes on God but has yet to be convinced of Christ.

Im at a real conflict here. Life is so stressful at the moment. I am waiting for hear about a job or two.

Faith always used to carry me through these times.
