I've been speaking at churches for years, as well as juvenile jails, rehabs and hospitals, and I always talk about my faith. That is a declaration of my relationship with God.

I have my own faith which I've developed. It's non-denominational. I don't even know if it's about God.
In the periods of my life when I've had least contact with the Church, I've always assumed a belief in God is a solid thing, but clearly it's a relationship; it has good days and bad days.
I have always had a deep connection with my faith, and I was fortunate to have been brought up in a Christian environment. My faith is a very important part of who I am.

I don't go to church regularly. I wouldn't say I was religious, but more spiritual.
My own faith was nurtured by my grandmother and her clinging deeply to her faith when she was dying a painful and slow death from cancer.
I grew up in a house full of faith, and my mother died when I was a little girl, and I found comfort in my faith.
I grew up in the church, and I feel very strongly about it.
