Growing up in God's House -- revision

[Lizzie]

Maybe because it reminds me of growing up in a small country baptist church.

That's exactly what it was, too!!! It was technically a "community" church, but they had previously been baptist, and most there were. And both my mom's dad and my dad's dad were ordained Baptist ministers. So, when I say that I grew up in the church, I MEAN it.

We must have gone to the same church, at least in spirit >< >< ><

Yeah, I will switch a few things up and tighten.

I'm glad the poem reached you -- thanks for letting me know what worked.
