When Jesus found me a Year Ago I begain looking all around for someone who could tell me which parts of the bible I should study first. After some respectable dedication to study I'm blessed to be able to offer some guidance for those in the same situation. I think everyone should read the...

Jesus found me. In reality, he did so long ago and He's Just woken me up to it. In short, I was a hard core addict one year ago. I was alone with my addiction. My family is not religious at all though I see some of them coming around to it mostly in appreciation of my heling. I paid money...

Still a very new Christian. An old friend reached out to me with marriage/relationship advice. I followed my first instinct and promised to read Ephesians and get back to her. Simply put this female friend (I'm a man) is questioning whether GOD intended for biblical encouragement about...

While recounting our lives before we accepted Jesus or simply discussing sin, we point out a short list of common sinful acts; Adultery, substance abuse, swearing and so on. We overlook and omit however, the more far-reaching and widespread acts of sin. I believe that we bury sins of the...

While sharing my bible reading plan with a lifelong Christian and missionary I was advised that the end of Romans 8 covered a much debated topic; predestination. She explained to me that she had seen churches literally split apart because of the contraversy over this specific topic. So I read...

You're Defending your faith!!!! How i'm treading carefully to avoid building adversarial relationships with non-believers in my life...And here's why. Reason 1) I love them and will pray at some point they will see the changes in me and start to ask questions. Then I'll minister to them...

Caution new Christian! To be sure Joab made mistakes and committed murderous atrocities against the will of King David. David however, was exceedingly merciful and benefitted much from bull-headed men like Joab. In the case of Amasa, its unclear as to where amasa was headed when they met him...

Every time I express my excitement about God's grace, more experienced Christians seek to ground me by ministering against sin. Why must it be one or the other? Through my lens, I'm waking up happy for the first time in my life. Gratefulness for having recieved salvation has set my path...

I've learned that the most pertinent challege for a new Christian is "Remaining in Christ". There will be days that you wake up with your old negative thoughts and take a few hours to remember God. There will be segments of your day spent inside your old godless thought patterns. Please Share...

If anyone considers themselves moderately well studied: Did you use any specific methodology when attempting to digest the word in its entirety? I say this with the understanding that repetition is key. Everything was far more impactful the second time I read. I'm considering character by...
