I grew up as a mere church-goer who didn't care about God or Christianity, treating God as my own Santa Claus and using church as a place to meet friends. My views changed when I went to WWSC in 2012, realizing I didn't know my Bible, which led me to attend conferences and youth groups where I began to understand the true Gospel. Through CERC, I came to learn about this explicit gospel and the sovereign God who shows His righteousness to undeserving sinners. Now, I want to serve and love CERC as a community of God's people under Him, standing up for truth and seeing the importance in understanding Scripture faithfully.
