Hey I'm Jim, 17 and not quite convinced in Christianity I'm mostly here for questions. I do come from a baptist background and still go to church usually around 2 times a week. Just FYI.

'Ello, my name is Nick. I'm a non-denominational Christian. My interests vary greatly but I feel as if God is pulling me by the ear into youth ministry. I'll talk about almost anything. All you have to do is ask.  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

Welcome, Jim and Nick. Jim, I hope you find that your questions are answered here. 3nodding

Hey, I am a 21 year old male currently attending Valley Forge Christian College for Music Performance and World Missions. I have pretty much grown up in church and on stages (church stages, school stages, even professional stages). I am currently not really going to church regularly but my college has a chapel service 5 days a week and students are supposed to go to most of them. I am excited to meet new people here and I hope everything will be fun! biggrin

Welcome all! Hope you enjoy this guild smile

@lost_silme: I may end up as a youth minister some day... if I hadn't been a theatre major I would have been a youth ministry major. I have a feel some day I'll end up in some sort of theatre ministry though smile Yay youth ministry!  

[Fushigi na Butterfly]

Yay, new people! Welcome, you guys. It seems people are getting older and older. For a while we were getting mostly young 'uns coming into the guild. It's nice to see some more college-aged people. 3nodding

I'm new here 3nodding
Although I think that's obvious since I'm posting here o_0
Anyway..

My name is Anthony, and I'm 19 years old. I was raised an Episcopalian, and was an altar boy for...... 4 or 5 years when I was in elementary school, and receive an award for outstanding excellence in serving.

Then our priest's mother passed away, and he ended up moving to California after she was buried. The church struggled trying to find a new priest, and in the mean time my moms friends were trying to get us to goto their Serbian Orthodox church. My mom and dad watched all the training tapes and were really into it, but I only really went because I was still young and all my friends were at the church.

Well with my curious mind and the absence of a church I really liked, I began to explore other religions as well. I did the whole Wicca thing for 5 years, but it never really felt right to me. It seemed like I had to FORCE myself to pray to someone other than the god I'd known. Also, things were happening and for about 2 years I was an atheist, but I still prayed once in a blue moon. I know, weird right?

Well I was walking around campus one day, it was a cold october night (I have an air for being descriptive at times razz ) and I was just thinking about everything. I analyzed every significant thing that's ever happened to me, and realized that everything had a lesson in it, some kind of growth came from everything. Every heartbreak, death, and all that gave me some kind of new outlook on life I had never seen before. And at that moment I just sat down under a bench, prayed to god and cried my eyes out.

Aaaand ever since then I've been a devout christian. I pray every night and numerous times through the day. Every obstacle I come across I see as a test from god, and I analyze everything that's happened to figure out what kind of lesson I should be learning from it. And honestly I've been a completely happier person. I don't get sad anymore, and my stress has been reduced tenfold.

I don't goto church anymore, though. I don't really feel that I'm losing any experience because I have a more personal connection with god =)

And yes.. I do type too much biggrin biggrin biggrin
