R and I are the same age, and we were often classmates in primary and secondary school. When I first started going to church, we were in the same Bible Study group. We were even baptised on the same day. She was, it seemed, the perfect “church girl”. A talented singer with a vivacious personality. By contrast, I struggled to fit in despite my best attempts.

Not because there was anything wrong with what she had shared, but because I suddenly felt like I could not be as honest with my own confession.
