Orange is my favorite color. I'm wearing an orange polo shirt right now in fact.

when (and how if you want to share) were you saved?

when (and how if you want to share) were you saved?

I was baptized in the Christian faith at age 14. I went through some really tough times in my life. I had even began to doubt Christianity and even God and had basically become a backslider. Then one day I finally realized that only Jesus could save me. I could not save myself. I began attending church again, and My "conversion" didn't happen until later, it was the first Sunday of Lent 2006 when I was kneeling at the communion rail about to receive Holy Communion. I knew that God had truly forgiven me all my sins. I knew that Jesus loved me and died for me. I felt the Lord's presence and my heart was "strangely" warmed (to use a quote from John Wesley). That day it went beyond a mere intellectual acceptance to a true heart-felt acceptance of Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I knew that truly "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9) and that "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:" (Romans 8:16). Thanks be to God!

What do you like to do for fun?

I love reading, I also like to watch a good movie with a friend, or listen to some music. I also occasionally play some music myself.

I've never recorded my music...been more of a hobby and other than that just played for worship a few times.

 

[trentlogain2]

would you be willing to record something and post it?

 

[Historicus]

I will consider trying to do that sometime.

 

[Keri]

Do you like it where you live? If you could live anywhere else, where would it be?

 

[Historicus]

I do... Ohio is nice, just not so much in the winter. If I could live somewhere else it would probably be somewhere warmer (just in the winter though! lol).
