Hi, I’m new

Hello Elijah, and welcome! My name is Linette, and I'm also new to CC. Having a good day so far?

Hello Elijah and linette my name is Nick and I am also new. I have a issue regarding going back to church with my freind I dont know if I believe in god. need some advice please. Thanks Nick.

Hi, Linette and Nick, thanks for the welcome.
Nick, I don’t know if I should be giving advice, but I am convinced God exists and is very, very good. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t let us make mistakes and experience the consequences sometimes. But he loves us and only wants what’s best for us. Life is sort of a learning experience, I suppose. Hopefully it gets better and better as we grow older.

I'm listening, Nick. But for starters, I might suggest reading "The Gospel of John" in it's entirety. Ever done that? If not, it'll give your the perfect opportunity to investigate the life and teachings of Jesus Christ (who is the God that you're unsure of believing in). Overall, I see this as being a very reasonable and necessary step for anyone with doubts, Nick. So consider it this way: If you didn't immediately trust your new supervisor at work, what would you do? If you're like most of us, you'd definitely check him out, observe his behavior (especially when no one's looking), find out his track record with others, and get a clear sense of what he expects of you, right? Only then, after you've fully investigated these things, can make up your mind about where you stand with him. Am I right?

Hope this is helpful, Nick. I'm all ears...
