 My name is Katie and I'm Polly Amherst. I struggled with my faith and also being a Polly Amherst person because this is absolutely completely frowned upon in our community. I was a worship pastor for many, many years in a very conservative church. When I decided to just be a little bit more truthful with who I was, I had to really rewrap my mind around what I truly conceived God to be and what that love towards me looks like. I realized there was just no way that I could keep hiding this really important part of myself. She reinterpreted who she saw God to be based on who she felt she truly was. She's creating a God in her imagination that's okay with her sin, but that is idolatry. Many people receive their identity from their worldly desires, but God wants to transform our desires from the inside out and give us a new identity in Him.
