The one thing they've done to "improve" was a four-week fast from various things- food, media, etc.- but that was all done hidden away in the choir room where no one could witness the changes that were supposed to happen. I realize we're supposed to fellowship with other Christians, but are we supposed to also hide away from non-believers, scraed to offend them? I've found that doing a separate Bible study was more fulfilling (though that fell apart because one of the two guys running it quit because his girlfriend wanted him to). Occasionally, one of my friends will bring out their Bible and we'll pass it around for verse reading. Somehow, I enjoy that more than the organized, follow-me-in-worship thing. Worship is fine. Following someone I don't feel connected to isn't, at least with me.. not in the way they were doing it.

Hmm, that would be limiting. CCC works very differently from that. We (why do I still say we when I am no longer involved? Oh well.) are very outgoing and open. Many of our activities are designed with non-Christian guests in mind, and we share our faith in various ways. But anyway, I never felt as if I was hiding my faith with CCC. When you go to college, you'll probably want to check out your local chapter-- I imagine you'll like it quite a bit. :-)
