[quote=Anonymous]It's very frustrating because we're told things like "live for God" and that's easy with things like helping widows and loving enemies as the Bible commands it. But there are not people in the church I can go to and ask questions about doing math or programming for God and what that means. At worst I'm brushed off, and at best I'm given something off the top of their mind which may or may not be Biblical.

I turn to Paul's verses on gifts because there are so many things that I can do and have done for my faith and for the faith of others (though they may not know it) though mathematics and programming.

Simply programming has helped me to read the Bible, and answer my questions on the Bible, and build up similarities between things that I didn't even know we're related.

So I'm posting this here. But I've been kinda asking God this same question because I'm really confused. I'm trying to use this tool as a gift or whatever it is. It doesn't define me as I used to believe when I was a kid, but I'd be foolish to say it didn't taint how I see the world.

You may see colors and stuff. I see logic. And my prayer had been that I can just make sense of this. And I've come to accept that patience is part of being a Christian.

But my fear is that without proper guidance from the church, the type of tools I'm building have the power to cause confusion within the church and people will use mathematics and programming as a scapegoat.

I just want to use this as a gift for God [/quote]
