We have a very friendly non denominational church adjacent to our subdivision. They do lots of good things in the community and I am sure they open their doors to everyone.

If I was Christian and had no home base religious institution, I’d walk there. I could see it from my window.

Prosperity gospel only applies to the US and affluent circles. Many good folks and devoted Christians living in developing countries live on a dollar a day and even that is a blessing. It’s not because they aren’t doing good in the world or don’t deserve it or G-d forgot about them but just because where they live. Heck some try to leave but we, land of prosperity, deport them and turn them away all while preaching prosperity. Extremely contradictory message. But to each its own.

There are many ways to find community and wholesome circles. It’s a lot of work. Often pushing yourself out of a comfort zone. But the outcome is better and healthier in a long run. There are many ways to combat loneliness. Some ways are healthier than others

You can do it. It’s encouraging that you are considering perhaps going back to your husband isn’t the best choice
Thanks for this!
