Christianity Explored
We all get one life to live, and deep down, we’re all asking the same question—what’s it all about? In this eight-session course, we will explore life’s big questions.
23 Sep-4 Nov 2022
Christianity Explored looks at the big issues in life and how the Bible addresses them. The course consists of 6 online sessions and 2 onsite sessions at Petaling Jaya Evangelical Free Church (PJEFC), Malaysia. No prior Bible knowledge is required.
Admission is free.
Who is Christianity Explored for?
Christianity Explored is for anyone who has ever wondered about the meaning of life. The Bible says God has “set eternity in the human heart” (Ecclesiastes 3:11). We all have a God-given awareness that there is “something more” than this temporary world.
Maybe you’ve always had a “spiritual itch”—a sense of discomfort that begs to be scratched. You’ve looked for relationships or achievements, but these provided only temporary relief. Something is missing. Find out what life is all about and scratch that itch!

Stories from Participants
“In spite of having abundant material things and loving people in my life, I never felt a sense of fulfillment which I expected to experience.” – Katie
“There had been many happy moments, but they proved to be short lasting. There was always the next goal to reach, and it felt like I was chasing after an endless dream. I was perplexed – is there anything out there that could quench my thirst once and for all for an everlasting joy and fulfillment?”
“What if there is a heaven and hell? How could I make sure I would be good enough to avoid hell?” – Xichen
“Throughout the course, I was challenged by the gospel, and I realized that I am by no means ‘good’ in God’s standard.”
