I know this community isn’t very big yet, but I’m wondering who else here might have been a preacher’s kid or missionary’s kid growing up?

My brothers and I are PKs and no longer Christian. One is still spiritual but more in a open to what makes sense to him. My other brother and I are atheist but he might be more agnostic.

Our parents hammered home the teachings of Christ and we were all so confused by the hatred of Christians.

In my case they hammered home the lessons of Christ and then allowed themselves to be taken hostage by white Christian nationalism because you don’t see it when literally everyone around you is reinforcing cruelty.
