Personal Narrative: My Trip To A Baptist Christian Church

1045 Words5 Pages

I decided to go to a Baptist Christian Church. Up until a week ago I haven 't been to church in a few years. Growing up I would attend different churches such as Catholic, Pentecostal, and a Baptist. To be honest, I didn’t enjoy them as much because they bored me and I was sitting there waiting for it to be over. At the time I wasn’t really old enough to take in and appreciate the church for what they were, instead I would just attend these church 's because the people I was with wanted to go. I attended Cedar Creek Church because I was told that It was a fun and different from traditional churches. When I sat down and thought about church 's I could go to for this assignment Cedar Creek was one of the first ones that came to mind. I was told Cedar Creek was a fun environment an I know a few people that attend Cedar Creek so I didn’t feel like a stranger or an outsider, which was one of my fears going into this assignment.

As the service came to an end the band came back on the stage and started to play slow music. The man who grabbed the micophone in the beginning got on stage and the church prayed together. As the prayer ended the band began to play louder and they played one last song and the service was over. The feeling that I had after attending Cedar Creek was very positive and put me in a fantastic mood. After attending Cedar Creek church the first time I have gone as much as I can and I get frustrated when I have to work on Sundays because it means that I don’t get to attend the church service. Overall attending Cedar Creek was a fantastic experience. I kept telling myself that I should try and go back to church, but this assignment gave me a reason to actually do it. I attended Christian churches before, but they were older style churches where everyone dresses up the music that is played is dated. I have to say that attending Cedar Creek showed me that not all churches are the same and that there are more "modern"

Part One – Christian Worldview In today’s world it is easy to become enchanted by worldly things. The deceptions that Christian’s allow themselves to believe (i.e. just this once, it’s not going to hurt anyone, I can handle it, I can stop whenever I want, etc.) come directly from Satan. There was a time when hearing a curse word or seeing too much flesh in a movie would be embarrassing; now it appears to be the norm and most Christians do not even bat an eye at such things any more.

Mlk And Civil Rights Essay

204 Words | 1 Pages

Dr. Martin Luther King’s involvement in the civil rights movement is based off of his beliefs of individual responsibility and justice versus injustice. Going off of his beliefs King would go on to encourage thousands of other African Americans to join him in the civil rights movement. Dr. King believed that every person had a voice that counted, and that the oppressed rely on that voice to free themselves. He believed that “Time itself is neutral”(King) saying that if the oppressed continue to stay quiet and conform with what society wants then nothing will change. If you look on those words and compare their usage from the 1960’s to the present you see that they are still relevant.

I have been raised in the Baptist/Southern Baptist church my entire life. My parents are from South Carolina, which is also where I grew up, so our idea of Church has always been a small community with a very relaxed atmosphere. I stopped attending the Baptists church when I was 16. I chose to join Bent-tree Bible Fellowship, a non-denominational church.
