For me there was a definite moment when I would go to church & feel anger afterwards.
I would pray & only feel empty. The sabbatical lasted many years.
I am there.
I go to church and just go home full of rage and anger. There is no solace. There is no peace.
Prayer is still a positive in my life, church is not. I wasn’t angry a year ago, but the anger has slowly been growing. I keep trying to work through it and find the other side. Instead, I keep finding more things to feel angry about.
I don’t generally come home from church with anger, but more of a feeling of wasted time.
