Book review: Things I wish I'd known before we got married
For Jill (Matt's husband), the issue seemed to be attending church versus not attending church. However,attached had a totally different perspective on spirituality. He did not grow up attending church. While a student at the University, he had become involved in a student-led organization. After several months of attending meetings, and reading the Bible and other Christian books, he had come to consider himself a Christian. While he and Jill were in a relationship, he attended church with her every Sunday and found it interesting. But now that he was out of college and working full-time, he found the church services to be much predictable and did not find the sermons to be very helpful. He sincerely felt closer to God on the golf course than he did at church. He could not understand why attending church was such a big deal for Jill.
On the other hand, Jill was devastated. Attending church with other christians was one of the tents of her faith. It was unthinkable that a good Christian would not go to church. "What will we do when we have children?" She asked. "I can't bear the thought of my children not going to church." I could tell that Matt was getting frustrated.
"Jill, we don't have children," he said. "We can cross that bridge when we get there."
