Why is it hard to talk about God?
Growing up, I found it really uncomfortable to talk about God. It wasn’t until I got into my 20’s that I found how valuable a church community was. What are some ways you’ve got better at talking about God?

Why is it so hard to talk about God? When I was in school, no one talked about God. So, bringing him up just felt weird. It wasn't until I got around other Christians at church, Christian summer camp, where I felt like it was more acceptable. But, we're not supposed to just talk about God with other Christians, right? Well, there is a benefit to it. Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm. Okay, so walking with other wise Christians can help make us wiser, perhaps learn how to talk about God, make it feel more natural, so that when we're with our friends and they ask, "What did you do this weekend?" You can say, "I went to church." And not feel weird about it. Cuz I don't know about you, but sometimes when non-Christian friends talk to me about church, I get a little shy. But, from experience, getting around other Christians has helped increase my faith and get more comfortable talking to anybody. Now, there was a season where I felt like I didn't need to get to church, that I didn't need the church, I didn't need other Christians. In fact, I remember one summer where I made a lot of new friends. They loved to party and do all these things. So, in my mind, I'm like, "I'll go hang out with them and slowly tell them about Jesus and maybe help bring them closer to God." But, do not be misled. Bad company corrupts good character. And that's what happened to me. I started to compromise so many of my values to fit into this group. Now, thankfully, God saved me from it. But, it taught me a lesson. There's so much value in being surrounded by a church community, Christians who can encourage you, so that we can get more comfortable talking about God, and so that when we're out in the world, our character isn't corrupted. What makes it easier for you to talk about God? Praying for you today, friends. God bless.
