- | Since I had been raised in Southern Indiana and Kentucky, I had been raised around various Christian traditions. The problem I was having was none of them much talked about visiting a large blue blob area of bliss and then reviewing your own life and getting choices about whether to come back to your beat up jalopy of a body or not. I was not inclined to regard traditional Christianity as having all the answers anyway, as the churches I had been a part of had not impressed me with the willingness of people to achieve the promises spoken of in books such as the Bible. I therefore began an intensive process of trying to figure out what had happened to me and why. The final outcome of that process was an arrival at [[messianic_judaism|Messianic Judaism.]] The fruit of this process was the production of a Church in a style of James or the Church of Jerusalem. | + | Since I had been raised in Southern Indiana and Kentucky, I had been raised around various Christian traditions.
