  • That I can remember? And regularly attended? At least 10. All protestant, but mix of evangelical, non-denominational, and now, mainline.

    Mostly because I’ve moved around to different cities a fair amount in my life, but I’ve also switched churches without moving while my theological understanding has shifted.

    If you count churches I’ve just visited and not regularly attended? At least another 10-12. Maybe 15.










  • I got yelled at for making original posts in multiple communities, now I get yelled at for cross posts. I’m just posting relevant content to relevant groups.

    I thought the cross post was supposed to solve for it and your client only showS one post if you’re subbed to multiple communities that it’s cross posted to, no? I only see it once in my feeds.





  • What are your interests and skills? Like someone else said, who you know matters more than anything else, but depending on what your interests and skills are, you can go out of your way to connect with people in that space.

    And get used to finding ways of talking about yourself as a good fit for that kind of job. Brag on yourself.

    Also, volunteering is a great way to build up a resume of skills in areas where you have no prior experience. There are jobs at food banks, homeless shelters, etc., but there are also often places like art museums and zoos that need volunteers. Basically, any non-profit you can think of probably runs largely on volunteers. Sometimes it’s in a warehouse or doing trash cleanup, but often they’re in office tasks like filing, misc office work, answering customer service emails, etc., that would be a great stepping stone to getting paid to do those things somewhere.
