3. Keeping Up-to-Date 

There are many Christian discussion lists and "communities" where you can talk to others who share your interests, whether it's homeschooling, pastoring, teaching, sewing, or woodworking.  These can be great places to ask your questions and get answers.

You can find these discussion groups on the Christian portals I talked about earlier, or you can go to sites that specifically list discussion groups by topic.  One of these is at egroups.com.  Take a look at this site now and browse through some of the discussions available under the heading "Christianity."  

When you join one of these groups, you'll get several emails each day (or week or month, based on how often the people in the group send messages to each other).  You'll be able to watch other people ask questions and discuss issues, or you can send an email to the discussion group and someone will likely respond to you soon.  You can even create your own discussion group on websites like egroups.com and invite others to join you.

For a free newsletter for new websites and other items of interest for Christians, you can sign up for a newsletter called "Internet for Christians."  You'll receive regular updates by email with links and brief descriptions of topics of interest.  Go ahead and sign up for this free newsletter now if you'd like, at gospelcom.net/ifc.  You can "unsubscribe" at any time if you decide later it's not for you.

And at the end of this course, I'll give you a link to many other great resources that you might like to try called  "A Sampling of Christian Sites to Try."  You can take a brief look at it now, or I'll provide the link again at the end so you can take more time on your own.

These resources should be good starting points for keeping you up-to-date with Internet happenings.

Let me wrap up with some concluding comments on the next page and then you're done with the course!
