Great article, Dan! Those reasons are exactly why I stopped attending church years ago. And good for you and your wife for finding the courage to leave; I’m sure that wasn’t an easy decision to make. I bet it made your faith stronger in the long run. If you carry your faith with you at all times, there is no need to attend a particular place, as God is always with you. He always welcomes you wherever you are. Thanks, this was really great.
