Problems of a Biblically Knowledgable Girl in a Religious Class at a Jesuit University...

After attending my New Testament class today I realized that I really am not a fan of religious classes. The biggest thing that bugs me is the fact that everyone is on so many different levels. For example, today we were in groups talking about a few different passages in the Bible. One person in my group is Chinese and has probably never picked up a Bible and the other obviously knows his way around a Bible but doesn't understand much of it. And then here I am, with the Bible open to Romans 12:3-8 where it talks about being one body in Christ, and I already know what the passage is about and can answer the question that is asked of us because I have heard this passage preached on before. So basically after the other two people give their answers I give my, "Well, kinda, but its really more like this..." And then it clicks in their head. The whole situation brought to my mind an analogy that Pastor Nathan used a long time ago to illustrate how spiritually deep we were going into our discussions. When he wanted a more logical answer, we would be like say 2 feet deep in a pool. When he wanted something that required some thinking and possibly the stringing together of ideas, we would be say 6 feet deep in a pool. That's kind of how I felt today. Here I was out in the 6 foot deep end, and everyone else was still testing the waters in the wading area. I guess I just get to be the leader in this, which I don't like doing. I would rather just sit back and follow until something comes up that I disagree with. As Pastor Nathan would put it, I am being stretched again.
