Ask me about: Social Situations, Relationships, Depression, Suicide, Health, How to Deal with Loss, School, Random weird things that don't fit into any of the above ;) I think I'm pretty good at giving advice, just ask and I'll give it my best shot. I've experienced a lot of it, and I don't mind doing a little research if I haven't. I love playing piano, clarinet, in general I just love music, and I love to write and read, poetry especially, and I love mathematics, physics, and oceanography. I've been told I'm mature for my age, but I don't know, I just think that a person has to be who they are, true to themselves, and not worry about what fits into an age group. I love simply living as best as I can, working when I have to, and having fun. It's all in your perspective. Just a quote that I like "Dreams are made and broken, potentials realized and never reached, all on the breath of one phrase: It could be."

Hey,
ok there is this church- it's REALLY close to me, and it's the church all my friends go to. They also hold a youth group there- also where all my friends go. But my problem is, my family hates the preacher and preist, and they hate us. But i REALLY need religious guidance, and i thought it'd be cool if my friends were there with me. And all my friends went to summer camp -- without me! lol, see the camp was held by the people from the church, and my parents wouldnt let me go! So they have all this fun at camp and they know SO much more about God than i do.. so to tell the truth, i really have no idea who/what God is! I cant read the bible because (to me) it makes no sence!! too many big words.. lol. I want to go to a church.. I REALLY do, it's just i feel like my friends will have more to talk about without me. And i dont want them to go to a differnet church, because that would be selfish. I love God, I do! BUT WHAT THE HECK DO I DO?!?! I rate high!
Talk to your parents seriously, it's unusual for a young person to have strong convictions about wanting to find their faith without their parents' guidance. Tell them that your friends go there, and you'd like to share in the faith with your friends, and grow spiritually with them. Give them a chance to tell you why they 'hate' the preacher/priest, it might not be something irrational or something you shouldn't look over, but hate has no place in Christianity anyways. Suggest that they let you try going to the Church for a few weeks, and then if they feel that you're not having an experience they think you should have, you won't go anymore. If they still don't let you, find another church. However difficult that may seem, if you really want to get to know God and be a Christian, you shouldn't let this stand in your way. Hope this helps!
Love,
Nevaeh
