I go where I see God best. I hope that's true for everyone. I know many people for whom church serves that purpose. And at times, that's been true for me as well. But more often than not, I'm most connected with my source when surrounded by nature, appreciating the absolute &amp; unrivaled beauty that can be found in every tree, every stream, every rock and every flower.

Because of my upbringing, I spent a number of years feeling guilty about not attending church anymore. But now I see, just as you do, that God wants us wherever our connection to him/her exists. I expect that place is different for all of us.
