I just wanted to comment on something that I feel my years in the church really messed up for me. The church taught me to be codependent. It taught me that I wasn't good enough, that I needed some guy who died 2000 years ago to make me a whole person.
I didn't realize just how much of an effect that had on me until just the other day. I am 35 years old and do not know how to be independent. My whole life, I have relied on god. It's always been him taking the credit.
I am now starting out on a personal journey to teach myself that I am in charge of my destiny, nobody else. It's not as easy as I thought it would be so far...but baby steps.
Anyone else find this?
