What would hinder you from active or regular participation? I'm afraid of being shut down or shamed in conversation I'm concerned my doubts are beyond the scope of the group I wouldn't be welcome in a group of "church" people I'm not sure I can trust others with this level of vulnerability I'm scared if I start this journey I will lose what little faith I have left My schedule is erratic/unpredictable I travel a lot Other (please specify) Question Title * 5. Please check the kind of doubts in faith you want this space to address. Does God exist? If God is good, why is there so much evil in the world? Is Jesus the only way to heaven? Why aren't my prayers being answered if they are for the good of someone else? Why are there so many other religions if there is one God? I struggle to associate with Christians who do not speak or behave with words or actions that reflect a God of love. I can't recite creeds or believe in the Bible because it seems so disconnected from current reality. I don't understand the point of the Trinity. The virgin birth necessary for Jesus to be the Son of God? Is the resurrection physical? Other (please specify) Question Title * 6. I would be comfortable inviting someone else to participate in this who is not associated with Flower Mound United Methodist Church. Yes No Maybe, depending on how the first few sessions go. Question Title * 7. How are you feeling after taking this survey? The questions made me feel like I'm not alone in this! I'm still questioning if this will actually come to fruition, but hopeful. I'm thankful this is even being discussed. I'm pretty skeptical this is not a bait and switch? I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm ready to invite some friends! Let's get started tomorrow!
