Hey there,

So, this is a pretty new journey for me. I was an atheist all my life, but recently I've been feeling a draw to Christianity. It's been a pretty strong pull, and the steps I've taken (reading the bible, going to service, trying to pray-- not very good at it) have felt right. But, if someone asked me if I was saved... I would say... I think so? Everything just feels topsy turvy to me, and I struggle to say openly that I believe Jesus died for our sins and was resurrected. Actually, that's the first time I've put it in writing.

I joined because I move around a lot-- although by Feb of next year I may have better stability than I do now. And I'll be moving to a remote worksite. There's not a church nearby, and while I'll have access to online sermons, I wanted to seek fellowship as well. And a livestream doesn't accommodate that. I'd also like to find things that would help me grow in faith, and... maybe confidence, too, haha.

Thanks,
GMA

Welcome! Glad you are here.

I have a video for you - a testimony from an atheist in China who encounters Christ and becomes a Christian.

Hi Gell;
welcome to CF; May the Lord Jesus guide you here as well as in the world; and may you find friends and what ever you need from the Lord here.

I do have a question for you; do you like music--Praise & Worship music?

I have found; in times of trouble; like we have with this CV-19; that listening to; and singing along to good Christian P&W music; can bring us closer to Jesus and His wonderful peace.

Well; we have a new forum here at CF just for P&W music and at the top is a directory of other Christian music threads around CF; come and take a look!:wave:

Praise and Worship Music
