Another Newbie!

[gracefullight]

Hi folks

I'm new here, I guess that's obvious lol! I'm 33 years old, was raised in a United Reformed and then Episcopalian (Scottish) church. I drifted away from the church around 1999 after a lot of differences with some people there and ended up into some quite New Age things. For a while now I've been reading about the Quakers (whose general beliefs seem to match mine in a lot of ways), and recently discovered that there is such thing as Liberal and Progressive Christians. I guess deep down I never stopped loving God in my heart and eventually realised I want to explore my relationship to God again. It wasn't so much a revelation that I felt that way, more like a slow realisation of my heart's promptings.

I guess that's how I got to this forum, in a nutshell!

Hello!!

Welcome to Christian Forums! I am so glad that you decided to join the site. This site is full of wonderful Christians who love to praise God, fellowship and just have a good time. I am sure that you will quickly meet many new brothers and sisters in Christ. If you are wondering where a good place to get started on the site would be, I would recommend that you check out the Edification and Life Stages boards. Edification allows you to participate in Biblical studies, to ask other Christians questions, and to post prayer requests. Life Stages is designed for people to meet and talk to people at different stages in their lives. There are many more options on this site, and if you would like for me to recommend some more for you please feel free to send me a private message.

To access the women's forum you will have to request access.
There is a sticky thread in the How To Forum to request access:
If you have trouble accessing the Women's forum - post here.

You need 50 posts to be able to include links/images in your posts.

You need 100 posts to be able to participate in the chat box.

I would also recommend that you check out the Blessings Exchange. This board allows you to play games and participate in fellowship threads to earn extra blessings, the site's currency. You can use your blessings for such things as purchasing items for your Living Avatar or creating a Pet.

The simplest way to earn blessings is by posting. You may earn anywhere from 5-10 blessings per post depending on post size. You may also get a Job here at Christian Forums to earn extra blessings. All you are required to do is post and collect your salary every week! The more you post, the more blessings you earn. You must have at least 100 posts to select a job. After you start earning blessings, you can deposit those blessings in a savings account at the Christian Forums Bank. By depositing your blessings in a savings account, you are able to collect a 1% interest on those savings each week! I do advise you to only deposit blessings once per week since the timer resets each time you deposit or withdraw blessings.

If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message!!
