learn how to blend Christianity with Buddhism

Untitled 11 months ago

I was raised in a very strict evangelical Christian home. My family was always at the church if the doors were open. Lately I’ve begun questioning my faith, but I’m not sure I want to give up on it entirely. The teachings of Buddhism resonate with me in a way I can’t describe. I’d like to learn more about Buddhism and possibly find a way to blend its philosophy with the religion of Christianity.
