Jody, please stop with the church bashing!! Baptists believe the Bible. She prayed and found this church. When you think your church is the only one that has the right answers, you are in a cult! Think on that!
As for you, Shy, reading the Bible is the one thing you MUST do. Because you won't grow if you don't. You simply are missing the joy of hearing from God every day! I knew when I got saved I MUST read the Bible. Not to be saved, but to learn and grow.
You must commit to reading the word of God. That is our bread, our food. It sounds like you are starving, because a sermon on Sunday or a study group is not enough. Please google a read the Bible plan and stick to it. I just do a simple one, but I read the Bible every year. I have read it 30 times. One for every year I have been a Christian, except for the two years when I first had Rheumatoid Arthritis and was so ill and upset with God I could not read it. It's ok, God forgave me and he has used it for good.
As far as the silence with God, that is a good thing!! Don't let anyone tell you it is not.
"Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10
I am just learning to be silent before God and he is teaching me. But I also rely on my Bible. Please get out that Bible, before you die of starvation. You are just hungry, I am sure.
God bless and praying for you!
