Learning about Faith
Christopher (Chris) Culvern, Age 15, Morristown-Hamblen High School West. First Presbyterian Church, Morristown, Tennessee.

I think that there is no universal best person or place where faith learning happens the best. People learn about faith in different places and through different people, so it is important to know your own individual ways and follow them. Here are some of the best ways that I learn about faith. One of the ways I learn about faith is through elders. Some of the best elders to go to are your grandparents and/or parents. Your grandparents have been around the longest so they have seen and experienced a lot of stuff you are going through now. They could answer probably any questions you have about faith. Your parents, on the other hand, know you better than anyone and could help you with anything almost as good as you grandparents (let's not forget who taught them all the stuff they know). Another way to learn about faith is through places that benefit some of the less fortunate people. In some of these places I feel that I can learn about faith through other people's actions, and I also feel God the strongest in these places. To me, the best way to learn about faith is through God.
