Catherine
Painter became a Christian while she was a student at
East Carolina University, Greenville, NC. Following
graduation, she married a Christian minister who had
“grown up in church.” Becoming a minister’s wife
highlighted Catherine’s biblical ineptness as she
juggled her numerous church responsibilities including
teaching new believers. Differences between her
Christian experience and her husband Jack’s spurred her
effort to mature spiritually through study and research.
“So, You’re a Christian! Now What? is the Bible study I
needed, and felt called to write after retiring from my
teaching career,” she says. “While Jack’s sermons aided
my spiritual growth, I needed a Bible study to bridge
the gaps between my limited scriptural knowledge and the
place his sermons began. “Seasoned church members may
assume that because their new siblings in Christ are
physically mature, they are spiritually mature as well.
More accurately, many will benefit from leader and small
group while mastering the same aspects of spiritual
growth the physical process includes.”
