YOU MATTER.

YOUR QUESTIONS MATTER.

THIS MONTH’S QUESTIONS:

  • how is religion so different from theology? and how do you know the Bible is proof of God’s existence when other religions have they’re books that prove the same?

  • How do Christians battle depression and just constant sadness. I have been struggling for 2 years now and it is really stealing my joy.

  • How do you build your relationship on God? And what are some things you can practice that will bring you both closer to the Lord?

  • Can you explain the idea of the Elect and your view on it?

  • How do you prevent pride when it comes to worshipping and serving God?

  • What are the Nephalim and what are the effects this belief has on our culture?

  • should we as christians ask God for signs?

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.
