Another C.S. Lewis Quote

I took that quiz, picked up my favorite C.S. Lewis book, and got this gem:

...When a young man who has been going to church in a routine way honestly realizes that he does not believe in Christianity and stops going ... the spirit of Christ is probably nearer to him than it was ever before

I sat in church last week and felt like a complete stranger. A wolf amongst the sheep - if you will. This is not to say that I have never believed in Christianity, or that I don't now. It would be more accurate to say that my experience in the last 2 years has not matched with the experiences of those around me. Perhaps it is because I am further along the path of owning my faith... I hope so. This quote from C.S. Lewis is an optimistic encouragement for me at this moment in time.
