(5,937 posts)I came from Lutheran, too much emphasis on sin nature and not enough on love and redemption. I have never felt more home since we've been going to an Episcopal church. We have attended for about a year, and plan to have our baby girl baptized their soon. Our Priest is very progressive but also very balanced and has been able to bring many people from different sides of issues to common agreement.
