Welcome to Godtalk. The idea for this type of site occured to me while I was working up north as a geologist, and spent a large amount of my free time trying to understand what it really means to follow Christ, based on the writings of men who were influenced by his teachings thousands of years ago. I am by no means an expert on the subject, and I found that it's easy to get discouraged when all you have is yourself, a couple rocks and trees, and a pad of paper on which to document your confusion. It is equally discouraging to compose a song, poem, or devotion and be unable to share it. The objective of this forum is not to get easy answers, but to present each question for further study and discussion. If it was easy to understand God, there would be no satisfaction in developing a relationship over time. The site is called Godtalk Uncensored because the purpose is not to sit in a safe Bible study in the church basement and talk about things on which we all agree; the purpose is to examine the world, be offended once in a while, be insulted at times, and still get up and share the gospel, our thoughts, and our stories.
