Also, don't become like the bears at Yellowstone that die by the dozens by the side of the road every winter---since the tourists feed the bears so much they forgot how to forage for themselves, they became dependent on the handouts. A lot of Christians don't even bother to 'feed' themselves by studying the Bible on their own. They depend entirely on handouts from a minister or a Bible study leader. While you will benefit tremendously from what you will learn from others, the thing you will value the most will be that personal time with God---where you read His 'letter' to you and have some intimate personal conversations with Him in prayer.
