SUMMARY:Adult Education Class- The Christian Experiment
DESCRIPTION:Ever had doubts? If you are like most\, you have. Ever had doubts about Christian faith? Many of us have. In a recent study at a leading United Methodist Church\, 95 percent of believers stated they struggle with doubt occasionally and 24 percent stated they struggle with doubt regularly. This same study also found that 44 percent believed their doubts helped them find or strengthen their faith. \nBeginning on January 5\, The Christian Experiment will discuss doubts. These doubts could be yours or someone you know. We will use some of Adam Hamilton’s work on doubt to help our discussions. You can find information about Adam Hamilton’s book Wrestling with Doubt here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsZPC_bsFcg \nWeekly Meeting Schedule\nJanuary 5 – Is There a God?\nJanuary 12 – The Good Book? Wrestling with the Bible\nJanuary 19 – Are All Non-Christians Going to Hell?\nJanuary 26 – Is Heaven Real?\nFebruary 2 – When Prayers Go Unanswered\nFebruary 9 – Why Do the Innocent Suffer? \nThe Christian Experiment meets every Sunday morning at 9:15 am in Glenna Hall. There is no required reading\, homework\, or other expectations. Feel free to come to one meeting or all over the next six weeks. We are an open and welcoming group seeking to engage one another in Christian fellowship!
