Did you grow up in a world of Christian Rationalism, Naturalism, and Materialism?

I confess that I suffered from cognitive dissonance as God was speaking to me about many truths. I grew up in a world of religion without the kind of power God shows you in Scripture. I grew up in a world of Christian Rationalism, Naturalism, and Materialism. As God peeled back the layers, each layer was difficult for me to accept. I kept asking, “Could this be true?” I didn’t just balk at one thing. I balked at many things God showed me. I just had trouble believing any of it. Fortunately, God didn’t unload everything on me at once. He spoon-fed me a little at a time. He was patient with my unbelief.
