True religion is very simple. The most important thing is being at peace with God and being in a loving relationship with God.
People of all ages, including children can experience and enjoy good relationships! In fact, it's possible that little children can enter into relationships more fully because they have fewer doubts and fears, so they can love and trust more simply. Please don't be put off from finding God because some people have made Jesus seem complicated and 'bookish'!
Relationships can prove to be very complex things if we start to ask all the 'how?' and 'why?' questions and this is all the more true of our relationship with God. Even though children can know God, faith questions can endlessly satisfy the probing minds of theologians and philosophers. If you have that sort of mind, then you will enjoy thinking about the tough questions. But even though these questions are important, please don't let them stop you from starting out on your relationship with God.
The Can I know God? pages contain the simple truths about how you can be put right with God the Father through Jesus Christ. We hope they will be of some help to you in your thinking and that some readers will meet with God there. If you want to take any questions further then please e-mail us your questions or speak to James or Chris, our Ministers.
