Millions of Christians down the years have found that the promises Jesus made are true, and have come to know him as their friend and King. As they have chosen to put their trust in him, he has revealed himself to them - the start of a life-long journey of discovery.

Only you can make the decision to follow Jesus, but the church is here to help. Below are some places you can look for more information about the faith.

The Bible

A good place to find out information is in the Bible, available from many book shops and web stores (not just specifically Christian ones). Christians down through the years have found this book a source of inspiration, guidance, comfort and help. If you are new to reading it, start in the New Testament with, for example, John's Gospel.

The Bible says:

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
