All scripture is taken from the NIV.
Is there any validity to the claims of Christianity? (That's a fancy way of saying "Is Christianity true?".) Our series called Apologia is designed to answer that question. Peter tells us "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have."(1 Peter 3:15) If you've never been challenged about what you believe and why, you will be. If you've never had doubts about what you believe, you will.
It's ok. God's not afraid of our questions. In fact, he welcomes them. He tells us "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."(Jeremiah 29:13). In other words, when we really look for him, he shows up.
Right now, you're probably one of these four:
You don't believe or you don't know what you believe about God.
You believe in God, but you've never really thought about why.
You want to believe in God, but you've got your doubts.
You completely believe in God, and you want to be able to explain why.
No matter where you are on this journey we call faith, it's ok. God likes the journey. He designed it that way. Let us help you along this trip. Check out the following weeks' discussions. Ask questions. Get involved in your own story.
Other Verses: Isaiah 7:9 If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all.
