The greatest thing you can ever learn about is God. Nature and the Bible teach us about God.
I recommend reading Psalm 19 in the Bible. This ancient song or poem reveals how God has made himself known to us in nature (his creation) and his word (the Bible). Nature reveals God’s greatness, wisdom, intelligence, power, love of beauty, and how we were designed to live.
The Bible reveals God’s coming kingdom and teaches us who Jesus is (the coming King) and his call to follow. Two thousand years ago in Israel and in Jerusalem, Jesus taught about God’s coming kingdom, atoned for the sin of all who believe in and follow him, and served as a great philosopher who revealed answers to life’s most important questions.
Jesus said: “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8, English Standard Version)
To that end, connecting with a church that rigorously teaches the Bible is essential for learning and growing in what is true, good, and beautiful.
Here is a list of churches. (There are other good churches, too.) Find one that rigorously explains the Bible. While searching, I recommend Grace Community Church, located in California, which offers live online services.
