I am asking for a bit of guidance, lost my bible as well.

i would suggest getting someone you are friends with to take you to wednesday nights or something if your parents dont want to have to drive you to church on sundays. the reason i say wednesday nights is because sundays might be too early for a friend to want to pick you up from your house.

two words: daily. devotional. they really do help a lot. and if you can, see if someone from your church can give you a ride or something

Seek earnestly and you will find Him. Pray, read the word, and find a community of believers. We probably sound like a broken record, but it’s the best way to really connect with and try to understand God’s love.

Thank you guys for helping me out, I will be sure to use your advice.

Anytime man, good luck on your journey

Personally, I've been in your shoes before, and from my experience, listen to a Christian radio station like the Bott Radio Network you sleep. You can listen to them online or they might be on the radio in your area. May the Lord bless you, and I'll pray for you

Your situation sucks, but the best thing you can do is read the Bible and listen to other believers on YouTube and such. This way you can try to convince your parents to at least try it and then they will realize the importance of church. Another thing you can do is go by yourself if your parents allow it. You could also try to make a deal with them that if you accomplish a certain goal, then they have to come to church with you. Hope this helps!

Ask someone who is a Christian to take you to church

watch videos online

Same here

look for christian friends.

Keep praying for 'em too, with love and sincerity. But yes, try plantin' some seeds in 'em, and have patience that the Lord will grow those seeds into a beautiful garden of flowers

Umm in the mean time... I kinda think ideas about getting closer are what we offer on this stream. A distant second or third to a Bible and a group of believers, but still a place to start

I know it's a really simple answer, but prayer. God is your eternal father, so while still maintaining respect, treat him like a parent. Don't just ask him for things and thank him for things, talk to him about your day. I testify that if you truly open your heart to him, he will respond and love you.

If you have a phone, then you could download the Bible app and gain access to any version you want to read, if you live in town, then you might be in walking distance of a church, maybe stay after school on Wednesday nights to walk to a church and ask your parents if they could at least take you home, and if else fails, pray about it

Tell your parents you are going to your friends house, and then go to church with them? Also try to buy a bible or ask your friend for a bible

My church has a bus route to pick up kids whose parents don't take them, so if you would be able to, you could see if a church bus could pick you up

I personally don't have any advice since I am not religious, but i hope that you doont become one of the Christians that shove their beliefs in everyones faces. I wish you the best!
