Seeking God Knows What

So I spent this evening (the third of my Sunday evenings) at a small group/bible study/Intro to Christianity class with my husband called Alpha.

I participated in a womens’ only Alpha group this Fall and enjoyed it very much, although I was the youngest member by about 10 years. It certainly helped me gain some perspective about God and what it means to be a Christian.

I decided, after attending the Fall class, that T might gain something by being a part of an Alpha course as he is really unsure of his beliefs about God and religion, in general. So I asked him if he would be willing to try it for a couple of weeks. If he hated it, we didn’t have to continue to go. I was amazed when he actually agreed and seems to enjoy it. And now, we are discussing God, Satan, Christianity and our experiences with it more than before (although a lot of it seems to take place in the car on the way home).

It feels good to be having these conversations.

Helps eliminate some of my fears that if I continue to move forward in my Christian journey and T stays in the same place on the “outside”, we might drift apart. I promised him I wouldn’t force this on him. My prayer for him is that he becomes more open and willing to embrace what God has given us through Jesus on his own.
