I am Christian too!! I was raised in non-Christian, believe what you want home. My folks were shocked when a became a Christian in college (at State School nonetheless). My husband also become a Christian in college. We were baptized on the same day. Ten years later were where married.
We currently attend a non-denotational church, but have moved recently and will be church hunting soon. I am not looking forward to it. I love our current church and grown so much there, but it is just to far to drive.
I am glad to see that there are other Christians here.

Hi

...I am...born and raised into a Plymouth Brethern missionary family. Strayed for a few years but I KNOW that God was with me every step of the way. He has protected me beyond belief and even though I live the consequences of sin...The Lord is over all so I'm just doing my best to raise my kids right and be an example of Jesus in all I do.

Currently I'm looking for a church because we just moved to Texas from Alberta, Canada.

I'm borderline conservative, but definitely a "Christian."

I'm a (some-what) conservative Christian. Our church was a Independent Baptist. We have merged with another church and are now a Non-denom. Bible Church. Not much has changed though. Many of our members still consider themselves Ind. Baptist.

Hi, friends.

I'm Beth. I was born and raised Lutheran. No Lutheran school for me but I'd love to send my kids to one. Right now we're living in Kuwait so that's not an option in my wildest dreams. LOL My DH is a contractor and I'm a teacher. DS1 is 10 and attends a British curriculum school. If we're still here when he's ready for middle school/high school (I really hope not) then we'll switch to one with an American curriculum. The twins are 3 1/2 so they're home with our maid/nanny.

My grandfather was a Lutheran pastor and while I'm willing to change churches if needs must (right now we're attending an Anglican church) I would have to remain in a liturgical church if at all possible. I love knowing that the lessons being read in church that morning are being read by millions the world over in their worship services. I love the church we're attending here. We're from UK, USA, Asia, Africa, South America. A wonderful mix of people who are there to worship the Lord in a Muslim country.

I forgot to mention my devotional (someone had asked about one)...I take Luther's advice...I start with the Lord's Prayer, read the Apostle's Creed, and say Luther's Morning or Evening Prayer. I find this to be a good springboard for other prayers I feel the need to say. If I'm just not in a praying frame of mind, it keeps me from not doing it.

Also, I'm trying to read through the Bible. I read 2 chapters in the OT and 1 in the NT each day (but lots of forgotten days I'm sorry to say). Right now I'm in Psalms and rereading Luke.

I attended the Methodist church growing up, on and off. My parents were not real religious so it was pretty much up to us if we went or not. I then worked at night with a nurse who was born again she explained the plan of salvation and I was baptized at 18. I went to college and married right before my 21st birthday. My husband was not real religious even though God helped me out and I met one of the few Christian Chinese people out there. I sent my kids to Lutheran school,attended their information classes and joined. I have been lucky having a boss who is a friend and an adventist who we could discuss god with every day it also helped working at Catholic hospitals.I am no longer working with her but she is my sister in christ. My husband had a sudden conviction after over 10 years of marriage and now reads every the bible every day.We attend Calvary Chapel-Diamond Bar where Raul Ries is the pastor.My husband attended Brethren church some growing up and we like the Message at calvary chapel but looking for a little smaller church. I like the lutheran church but my husband doesn't feel the same so we are still looking.The Lutherans have good money management principles.

Hi! Don't know how I missed this site. I love sharing my testimony of how the Lord saved me! I've been walking with my my sweet Lord for about 33 yrs now. I was raised Catholic. I always had an awareness of God. I always wanted to know Him better. After the birth of my first child I wanted something for him to grab ahold of. I started searching. It was during this time that my hubby's brother was wonderfully saved. He shared the "good news" with us. My hubby and I started attending a little Baptist church is out town. The Pastor kept coming to visit us and share what Christ could do for us! My hubby and I weren't going to get like his brother so we kept pushing Christ away. We thought if we went to church and lived right everything would work out. After a visit to my hubbby's folks house i realized that I needed to make things right with God. That night in my bed before going to sleep I asked the Lord to forgive my sins and my pride. I asked Him to become my Lord and Saviour. And He did!!!! It was the best thing I ever did. i still had the pride thing and I couldn't tell my hubby because we had made a pack of sorts. Well we went to church that next Sunday. At the end of the service the pastor gave an alter call. He had never used this one before. This time he stated that there may be someone out there that had asked Jesus to save them but had never told anyone. He said if that is you come on down on the next verse, I like to talk with you. Well I rose to my feet and at the same time so did my hubby. He had done the same thing during the week. We went forward and were baptized 2wks later! All five of my kids know the Lord and they have married belivers. Our first grandchild to be saved and baptized just did so about 2wks ago. Oh what joy!!!! My favorite verse is John 3:16. I'm so glad that God loves us and made a way to heaven for us!

Great testimony Thriftstorequeen. I grew up Catholic too.

**alliwantisjb** · 01-22-2008, 02:11 AM

hi, i was born & raised Southern Baptist as well, but as an adult I'm a Christian, not knocking no one but I have chosen not to be considered a denomination due to fact of so many different beliefs of differnet SB
Does that make since?Hope so because we are all sister& brothers , plain & simple... because there is only one GOD!

hope to get to know you all
