Faith Online: Twitter Testimonies From HuffPost Religion Community

Last week, HuffPost Religion put out a call for testimonies of belief in 140 characters or less on Twitter. With the hashtag, #twittertestimony, we received a flood of powerful replies that showed the diversity of the HuffPost Religion community.

The Twitter testimonies ranged from tales of redemption after drug abuse to shifts in general spiritual perspectives. Some of the stories started with how a person was raised while others shared encounters with divine intervention or exploration of new spiritual texts.

In every case, there was a change, shift and a story to tell. Twitter Testimony continues. Everyone is invited to share their testimony in the comments or Tweet it to @HuffPostRelig

of these Twitty things offer any objective, verifiable evidence of the existence of a "god" outside of their own minds? Or was this just an opportunity to use "diversity" in a sentence?

If you're liberal, diversity of faith even more so.

Look at all those sincere, heart-felt expressions of faith! Yay! Go, faith!
