From Islam to the Gospel. Where to start and where to go?translated

Reader question:

I was born into a secular Muslim family, and towards the end of high school I decided to renounce Islam (secretly). In the summer I learned about the translation of the New Testament into my native language, received a book and an invitation to the ECB MSC church. What should I do? Go to church? If yes, which one? Talk to the priest? How to behave? I do not distinguish between the Orthodox and Protestant churches. How to deal with the fear of becoming an outsider among family and friends?

Hello Murat!

I am glad that you turned to reading the Holy Scriptures. Protestant communities sometimes indeed talk well about God, but cannot offer you the main thing - the grace of God in the Sacraments of the Church. And first of all, in the Sacrament of Communion, in which the Lord Himself gives us His Body and Blood under the guise of bread and wine.

Unfortunately, you do not write anything about your city, which does not allow me to recommend a specific church to you. Nevertheless, feel free to come to a conversation with the priest. He will listen to you, rejoice with you...
