Okay, so welcome back everyone. Welcome to the box. All the summons.

I'm really glad to introduce a singer, a musician, a student at Royal Academy of Music

here in Stockholm, Annapalm, and that will play and sing for us. And after that we will have

a short open mic meeting where we will be able to present different feelings about our faith

journeys, very short brief moments for about two minutes or so. And you're all welcome to share

whatever is on your mind. But first of all, a big round of applause to Annapalm.

Thank you, Victor. Thank you very much. Just check in. Is the volume good back there when I speak like this? Yes.

Okay, so just first of all, thank you for this opportunity and for this arena to just do this.

I left church about, it's almost four years ago and I resigned three years ago. It was on the day one year

between those two, actually. My daughter's birthday. So in November I stopped going and in November

next year I resigned. And I'm a musician. I sing. I do different things. And my process out of the church,

it wasn't that much of the historical issues for me because my dad is the master of polygetic.

So I kind of grew up with all of those things and all the explanations. It was not a big concern for me then.

But it was my psychological process and I was like, if this is the only true church, I should be happier.
