Chapter 6
Beer, food and the Bible
I was pleasantly surprised by the Home Groups it was very relaxed and there a few non-Christians, like myself, there as well as wine, beer and food.
They talked about the Bible even some of the Christians were unsure what some passages meant. There were some disagreements but it never got hostile and everyone was encouraged to say what they thought, no matter how off the wall it seemed.
Myself and another guy sort of formed an unspoken allegiance we were the ones along with my wife who asked all the awkward questions.
I felt a sort of resentment building up inside of me not because these Christians were self righteous or smug or anything because they weren’t it was just because you got the feeling that they actually believed what they were saying was true.
My Grandfather was a Methodist Lay Preacher so I knew some of the things they were talking about and yet I still doubted that all of it was true. How come they didn’t doubt? Sure, you can hope that at least some of it’s true but there was no way you could believe all of it.
Then over the space of about a month several things happened that brought everything to a head………………….To be continued.
