What do you believe?

Where else can you go to talk about God? Have you thought about that? God is the most important topic that you can get excited about. I know you are probably thinking that I am only saying this because my baseball team is floundering. But really now, how many places can you go where people talk about God and their faith and what it means to live the Christian life?

Wednesday Bible Study is the place where that happens every week at FBC. We are actually trying to discuss C. S. Lewis' book, Meer Christianity, right now. But the topics are so rich and so deep that we have actually had a hard time staying on topic. For example last night we got on the subject of baptism. We asked if your baptism as a baby, an act done by your parents, could save you? Or do you have to claim it or do something more as an adult? I bet some of you had never thought about it. Well Bible study forces you to look at different aspects of your faith. It challenges you to think about what you believe, what you have been taught and to try and make sense of it.

That is good. It forces you to grow and as your knowledge grows, so does you faith. So if you aren't busy next Wednesday, join us at Bible Study. Email me at fbcnorwich@sbcglobal.net and I will tell you where we meet.
