Over the past few months or weeks you may have started to realise that there may actually be something more out there. That there may actually be a God. And you may be uncertain about what that means or where to start or where to from now.

You are not alone. In this episode we go through the five steps to start doing when you think God is real or when you're ready to start discovering more about Him.

In this episode we discuss what is water baptism, do I need to be baptised to be saved, and how does it help me?

A question we may start to ask ourselves on this journey, is can we lose our salvation? If someone walks away from believing in God, or continues to live in sin, are they still saved? In today's episode we have a look at the scriptures surrounding this topic.

We can have lots of questions about Christianity and Salvation... let's have a look at some together in this episode.

Why haven't I seen Him as a big light or a booming voice?

What do we do when we want to believe in God but want proof that He is real first? How can we believe in a God we don't know exists? And if God is real, how come He doesn't show Himself to me? 

If you have thought any of these questions, this podcast episode is for you.
