Abstract [sv]

Faith is a phenomenon that engages the individual into emotional, social and daily manners.

Religion tends to engage the individual in different levels in the daily life. In the church communion, there is a belief to the traditional and the repeteated behaviour. This shared group is strength by ceremonies and rituals and people in this collective somehow experience another type of reality. This study has a social - psychological perspective and the purpose is to study people’s know-how of faith and why they seek religion in today´s secularized society. A quantitative approach was applied through interviews with five independent religious women. The theoretical framework is mainly built by theories that deal with trust, reflexivity and fellowship. The result indicates that the respondents have a similar view on the fellowship with other religious in the church communion, all respondents describes that the relationship to God have a central meaning. This follows a further description and motive to their faith. Religion is an obvious part of their life and something they cannot be without, thus this generates feelings of wellbeing to the individual religious.
