    Probably everybody feels boredom from time to time. But after a successful spiritual reconnection to my own emotions the intensity of boredom reached new highs.

    I naively assumed that Baptist and Protestant churches, in their essence, are all about freedom from religious authority. After all, the founder of Protestantism, Martin Luther, challenged rigid religious authority embodied by the Pope.
