Hi all. I’m not new to C-D but I’m new to this forum so I’m reaching out to introduce myself. (I stumbled on this forum when I was scrolling through the main list of forums. I seriously had never scrolled any further down than "Wyoming" for years. LOL! Then one day I discovered the "General" topics area and the massive list of topics .... wow!).

So, I’ve read the forum rules and will try to follow them but please forgive me in advance if I accidentally post something that’s against the rules.

I understand this is a forum about Christianity but not necessarily for Christians. Fair enough - I’m guessing curious people wanting to know about Christianity may drop in and read, like I did. I’m hoping I may somehow reach them; help answer their questions - or whatever I can do to support. I also see a lot of regular posters here and I hope to chat and encourage them too. And also, I will post questions/thoughts because I have a LOT to learn (or, re-learn). Maybe that’s not really what this forum is all about, IDK, but I’m here to give it a try and I'm sure I'll find out!

I’m a “new” Christian – I went through a dramatic change in my entire view of life in July of 2019. Since then, I’ve been trying to sort it all out. I wrote “new” in quotes because I was a Christian before. Well… at least I thought I was... Actually, it’s a complicated and winding road how I got to where I’m at now, and I plan to write about that in another post at some point.

But for now, I just want to say “hello” and I’m looking forward to discussing & chatting more about Christianity and Jesus.

Oh also, I work a lot. 2 jobs. Sometimes I can’t log in and answer right away – just a heads up.

Hello, runningamok, welcome to this diverse forum! Looking forward to your comments about Christ.

That is definitely a topic many of us love to talk about, though divided in many ways!

Welcome!!

Welcome! Congrats on your new faith.

Don't take it personally when you get attacked by the antis here. There are a group of people that swarm like sharks to attack. But I look forward to interacting.

Welcome to the form!
We are a pretty diverse bunch here, so there will inevitably be frictions

I also look forward to hearing your story of recommitment, I think there are a few of us who have felt something similar and it is good to be able to share these things (if you are comfortable in doing that in this very public place)
