Going to Church

[micah719]

Materials? Bible.

Questions & Themes? Just start at Gen 1:1 and go through to Rev 22:21. Every theme you'll ever need is in there, and the questions won't stop. With a good concordance, such as Strong's, and a Hebrew/Greek dictionary, you can really get into word studies and meanings of names. Go for the whole counsel of God, don't let anyone limit you to their pet doctrines.

I'm going +3 with Zee. 1st Christians didn't have churches or bibles,(most couldn't read) yet they reached the known world with the inspiring knowledge that you could invite Jesus into your body like food for life. With Jesus inside you take your church(temple of the HS) and the "Word of God" with you.

christian is christian, doesnt matter the denomination. worship comes from within the soul, not from within a building.

my choice is open sea as a church--has all of the natural ingredients---not man made except the boat in which i sit for the experience.

oh poo--now i have started a riot....

Am not exactly on the same page with God(s) as many on this thread - but notwithstanding that, one thing I found in my wanderings is that lots of smallscale western Christian Groups (i.e. not part of the main brands) around the world doing missionary type stuff, whether as a formal NGO or not.

I mention it as they tend to be pretty welcoming / helpful - and the same lingo does kinda help. IMO getting involved with folks who have boots on the ground already / contacts locally is very useful where turning up somewhere new (in addition to any shared hobbies).

Albeit my direct first hand knowledge is not extensive .
