Less of my church, but more of my faith in Christianity. Ive become more open, like
Ive become less afraid in opening up and sharing my feelings. Im not worried
about where my life is going to head because I have faith God will guide me. Im
more worried about how well I can listen to God.
How has church affected your lifestyle?
Ive been attending church in college more than in high school. I never attended
Friday service in hs because I was always practicing(piano). My faith in God was
pretty stagnant in hs and it improved in college. I couldnt wait until I left Long
Island because I didnt like the way my pastors worded things. I pray a lot, all the
time now even in the mornings. I do rely on God a lot now especially when there is a
problem. I will pray first before trying to figure out a way to approach the problem.
How has church affected your social life?
I never really hung out in high school because I was so busy. The people I chose to
hang out with changed a lot especially during my senior year of hs. Most of my
friends were Christian and Jewish, but religion never came up, It was almost like a
taboo to bring up religion. Ive talked a lot about my faith in college though. Here,
the decision to go to church lies with me instead of my parents so I have many
friends who did go to church, but stopped in college. I stop talking to people who
dont share similar morals as me.
OBSERVATIONS
(I observed and took part in an hour long Bible study session. The topic was about
self-righteousness)
Some of the college students in this
group are more open about how they
behave outside of church than others.
The topic the group spoke about was
pretending.
