Seek Week 2012
I am blessed to be going to a school that cares about its students. The fact that we have Seek Week set aside as a time for students to focus on their relationship with God makes CBU special.
I think that “The Word of God”, this semester’s theme for Seek Week, is applicable to both Christians and non-Christians, because all the week’s activities are geared toward showing that the Bible can be trusted. I understand that many non-Christians have other reasons for their disbelief, but Seek Week can get some people one step closer to accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior. For Christians, the events can reinforce the validity of the Bible and show how we can defend our faith.
I have enjoyed Seek Week, because it has encouraged me to have conversations with people about what they believe and why. I think that it is very important for us to know why we believe what we do and be able to defend our beliefs. Apologetics is often forgotten. The church needs to teach truth and why certain things are true to those who believe.
Some people turn away from God because the moment they are challenged, they see Christianity as just another religion. There are some thought-provoking statements in the Bible, but getting to know God through His word can help clear up questions we may have. Through Bible study, we not only learn about God and the Bible, but we will be able to give a better defense and know the context of verses used against Christianity.
I encourage you to spend time in the Word if you haven’t been doing so. There is a lot to be learned from it!
This week pray for the Journeymen from CBU. Pray also for the Dowden and Ellis families.
