unsolicited advice on health, happiness and how to not be a dummy with finances

I always have mixed feelings when I put something out there about my faith. I come from a long line of Christian men and women. For a lot of the people in my family faith isn’t just one aspect of life, it’s the only thing that matters. I grew up attending countless church services and always had a close relationship with Jesus. As I grew up I started to have questions about some of the stories in the Bible. I didn’t so much doubt THAT they happened, but I questioned WHY they happened.
One of my favorite things in life is contemplating the religion I grew up with. I can’t emphasize enough how large of a focus Christianity was to my upbringing. This series is fun and cathartic for me, but I also can’t help but feel a little guilty for how it might make some people feel. I’m not purposefully being a smug little shit with the way I depict the characters. But, I don’t want to tiptoe around some of my doubts. I aim to hold a light up to them. If there’s no monster in the closet, that’s not on me.
