Faith can be defined as a spiritual entity that can shape a person’s confidence. My faith has influenced the young woman that I am today.

Baptists are one of the largest Protestant Christian Denominations. A vast majority of Baptist churches do follow the basic Baptist doctrines with emphasis on the belief that baptism should occur through immersion. This belief is the main contributor to their identity and therefore is the reason why they are called Baptists. Many groups of baptist emerged after the 17th century with many beliefs such as the atonement of Jesus as he died on the cross. They have different beliefs and founders as well as different regions of the world. As centuries go by the Baptist church expanded to different parts of the world and is the second largest religious group in the Christian faith after the Catholic Church. The Baptist origin and founders, their structure
The Non-Denominational church is an alternative traditional style that speaks to me from experience. The Non-Denominational traditional style of worship is about God and his attributes. The church flows with the Holy Spirit and believes in teaching the people the Gospel with simplicity rather than using the pulpit to slash people or tell others business that was told them in confidence. They focus on salvation, small group ministries, outreach ministries, and discipleship. They not traditional based but more of a free range church.
I went to a non-denominational Christian church on 18 July 2015. I grew up as a member of the LDS church and I no longer go to church as well as no longer believe as well. I chose the non-denominational church because it seemed less intimidating as others and I
Begin here…. “What did you think of the service?” my dad asked as my family packed into the van. My parents wanted to show us different types of churches than the Anglican one we had attended for years. While we wanted to visit more, we had suddenly found our next church before searching more than a month. We believe that some denominations are more righteous while others not, but as long as they are Christian I say that does not matter. Anglican and nondenominational churches along with others do not matter as long as they have truly Christen congregations.
God and his power and wisdom. I knew in my heart that I would have to pray and listen to God

ruary 8, 2017 Why are there so many denominations? There are approximately 38,000 different Christian churches today this can be very confusing to someone seeking a relationship with God, but in 1 Corinthians 14:33, it encourages those not to be confused because God is not the author of confusion but of peace. Denominations can be traced back to the first century, during the time of Paul Where he briefly talked about the divisions in his first letter to the Corinthians. Paul says how it is not okay to have divisions in the church. There are so many different Christian denominations and for someone who is interested in Christianity this maybe confusing and/or seem like a weak point. Most people who are venturing into the religion ask why does
Newly ordained Anglican priests are given a bible to show that all their authority is rooted in scripture, while priests that are ordained in the Roman Catholic church are given a chalice and a patten to symbolize their receiving power to consecrate the Last Supper. The Anglican polity preserves the ordained orders of bishops, presbyters-priests, and deacons that go back to apostolic times. Although there is no official doctrine of having a priest, some Anglicans consider it essential; some feel it is needed for the proper ordering or fullness of a truly catholic church (Encyclopedia of Religion).
Religion has triumphed my life over the past five years. Before truly knowing God, and finding my faith, I was insular to God and who He was. All of that changed the moment I first attended my youth group, One Student Ministries(ONE). ONE completely changed my perspective on God, and what it means to have an intimate relationship with God.
My faith journey has been challenged throughout my life. I have had many ups and downs, and many times when I questioned my faith. Although those times were rough, I found comfort in God and knowing that He is always there for me. One of my favorite quotes is “I
