Lyneun. I'm twenty. I'm a guy. Most people call me a heretic. stare (No worries, I won't poison you with my heresy) But above all, I love God with everything I have, and I always will.

Then who's to say you're a heretic? Welcome to the guild, Lyneun.

Just nobodies. wink Thanks for the welcome.  

[nippa!]

Hi I'm angela, i'm 14 and live in england. I've been following Jesus since i was 12 and was baptised about 3 weeks ago. I've had my ups and my downs in my faith but now i'm ready to serve. I'm part of the youth worship team at our church.

My strengths are that I LOVE to read my bible and i ask questions at church that i used to be afraid to ask. My weaknesses are that i can't pray aloud (I can't have a personal conversation with God if everyones listening!), and I am unconfident (only at church for some reason) but these won't be my weaknesses in 6 months because by then God will help me overcome these! smile  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

Who says you're unconfident? Just the fact that you are convinced this will not be a problem in six months is evidence to the contrary.

Anyway, welcome to the guild!

Hello. My name is Amelia in real life, but you can just call me Clo. I'm 14 years old.

I'm not quite sure if my family is Christian or not, but I'm pretty lucky in that my Uncle, Aunt, and three cousins are. I spent my first three years of my education in a Christian school, so, basically, I got off to a good start. I've faltered a little bit in my faith, like not reading my bible or skipping church, but I've always manged to get back on my feet at one point or another.

One thing that helped charge my spiritual battery, of sorts, was a conference in Washington D.C. called Dare2Share. The website's extremely useful.

I'm happy there are Christians on Gaia, and I'm grateful to be able to join this guild. ^_^

Welcome to the guild, Clo.

Do you live near DC? I live in Northern Virginia at the moment; it'd be cool if someone else in the guild lived near there too. 3nodding  

[Cloroxbleach87]

Um.....I think I live in Central Virginia, actually. Not sure though, I'm kinda directionally challenged. . .*shrugs*

But hey, we're kinda close, right? ^_^  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

That's so cool! Where in Central Virginia, exactly? If you don't mind my asking. If you don't feel comfortable displaying it to the whole guild you can just PM me and if you don't feel comfortable telling me you can just ignore the questions. ^-^

Hiya!

My name's Jeremy. I'm taking a look around here, but felt I should post something. I'm from the Midwest (I haven't seen too many other folks from here on Gaia yet...). I work in the IT department for a geotechnical firm. My big passions are writing and music, though I'm not necessarily spectacular with either. I'm in a small faith crisis (I hate that term, but words are failing me). Not with God so much...but more so with other Christians/people in general. I'm looking for ways to renew my faith in that regard.  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

Yay! Your first bout of activity in the guild! I'm glad you joined. 3nodding

Hello (=

My name's Sarah, but you can call me Bocie, Boceto, or Corgi on here if you like C: I'm 17 and a senior at an amazing IB highschool. I live in Cape Cod, Mass. As a side-note, I've recently I've been reflecting on what to write for my senior write-up (due soon ...) and my school was a big blessing in my life. I know God put me there for a reason and I feel like I belong there (=

I've been a Christian ever since I gave my heart to Jesus at mere 4yrs of age. I remember the exact moment...but looking back, it didn't make a big impact on me because I was so young and, since I have had the extreme privilege and blessing to have a Christian family, everything seemed the same. but in highschool I struggled a lot. the past couple of years however have really woken me up spiritually and made me stronger in my walk and a lot closer with God than I've felt ever before. I was moved to get baptised this past summer.

there are a lot of things I've struggled with but never acted on or dealt seriously with. recently I've been wondering about who God will bless me with for the rest of my life...my husband (= one book I've been reading in particular is really cool and has been giving me lots of food for thought on the subject, Rebecca St. James' Wait For Me novel (=

I wrote so much D: haha...oh yeah! I did just join this guild a few days ago, and this is my second official post. I'm really excited to be a part of this guild. it gives me a place online to interact with fellow christians, and I've been looking for that for awhile (=  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

Welcome to the guild. I love when members post introductions like yours because it's encouraging. To see that someone so young (that makes me sound like an old fart and I'm not- I'm only 21 sweatdrop ) is so on fire for God is a blessing on its own. Keep strong in your faith and God will take you to amazing places. 3nodding  

[Bright October Skies]

Hey guys, just call me Chibi. I'm 16 and live in the U.S. I'm a band geek and proud of that. I'm Christian, Methodist if you want me to pick a denomenation. I've been lucky to have been raised in a Christian family so I've always know God and Jesus from a young age. I never fully accepted Christ as my savior til when my parents got divorced and this one girl, Carol, cried because she found out I hadn't been saved.  

[Sir Knil the Sky Knight]

Hello all. I go by Knil. I'm a 20 year old guy and am currently a college student in Louisiana.

I been a child of God since, well, I was a young child. I've been through a small time of growth and then some years of stagnation around my early teens, but now, I'm done with being stagnate and am willing to grow again and have been experiencing some growth.

Also, during my college week, I go to the on campus Baptist Collegiate Ministry, a.k.a. BCM, for fellowship with fellow believers as well as teaching of the word.

This is my first post in this guild. I randomly found this guild and had been attracted to it to the point that I submitted a join request. Thanks for accepting my request.
