THIS MONTH’S QUESTIONS:
Can you loose your salvation?
What is the significance of Jesus and the Bible's teachings on forgiveness, love and reconciliation in today's world, especially in the face of conflicts and issues in normal society?
Would it be a sin to lie in an uncomfortable situation?
How do you know when God is telling you to do something—and it’s not just in your head?
When does the whole “add an addition to your father’s house” thing end? Do they ever become as big as a mansion? Or a motel?
In Exodus it says that the magicians were able to counter Moses’ miracles with their dark magic where did that ‘‘magic’’ come from?
How important is a question?
See what we did there? Questions are prompts for thinking. They are the manifestations of our Creator-given curiosity. They are essential in understanding God, ourselves and the world around us.
We take questions seriously, because we take our students seriously. Questions matter, because they matter. It is imperative (for their intellectual and spiritual development) to carve out intentional space to answer their questions: Questions about doctrine and belief, family and peer relationships, ethics and morality, media and culture… questions about anything. Our aim is to teach our students to ask good questions and to go to God for the answers. To paraphrase Del Tackett, for every department of our lives, for every direction we may go, God has spoken.
How does it work?
We use a third-party app called Pigeonhole to receive questions from students. We open up the forum in advance of the Ask Anything session, so students have time to think and compose their inquiries. They can submit questions anonymously if they choose. They even have the ability to “vote” on questions submitted by other students that they are most eager to hear answered. At the Ask Anything session, Pastor Bryan answers the students’ questions (with dialogue along the way) from a Christian worldview.
Our Ask Anything sessions are typically the first Wednesday of the month during the Common Ground worship hour.
