I'm sure you're right. When you're raised in two different religions, and each claims to be divinely inspired and true, it's kind of natural to recognize that both of them can't be and to go off on a search for truth.
I've had that experience with my former pastor's sermons. I figured that God wouldn't make sure he preached a sermon that fit the issues I'd been experiencing, so it must be that He was priming the pump for me during the week so that I'd be open to that Sunday's sermons.
That pastor retired a few years ago. I haven't had a similar experience with anyone since then.
