I grew up a Christian (Seventh-Day Adventist), going to church and to private schools run by the church. I went to church almost every day of the week.
I was raised in a very religious environment. +My father is a United Methodist minister. When I was seventeen I stopped going to church and had horrible nightmares about the devil coming to get me for about six months or more. I believed in God and feared him to some extent and asked him for help. I was taken to church and Sunday school every Sunday because my father insisted and physically forced me and my brothers and sisters to go and told us if we did not go to church we would go to hell.
The word "strict" was often used to describe the expectations of some families in regard to religion. Some of the women came from families who were determined that their daughters would be diligent in their church attendance, not only on Sundays but also during the week.
