Yesterday we went to the new Ebenezer
Baptist Church in Atlanta. Since I am an Atheist church can be awkward. I think
back to a Catholic service I went to that was very uncomfortable for me. I
didn't know any prayers, what to do etc. So I went to this Church with mixed
feelings. I have gone to a Baptist church before and I had a good time, but I
was still anxious. After the service I was blown away. I loved everything about
the church. Sure I had little criticism here and there about exactly what was
said, but overall I loved it. The message being preached was slightly political
and focused on love and acceptance. I liked this a lot as I could still relate
despite being not religious. If I lived in Atlanta I would definitely go again.
Not for the religious messages, but the sense of community and messages about
life that the reverend focused on.
