Oh wow, I get to give a story!!!!
born in springfeild ohio, baptized as a small baby. when I was like 5 I went to sunday school every sunday. but little by little the youth ministry was failing, so at 4th grade I pretty much dropped completely out. 5th 6th 7th grades I was completely away, and my family would go to church maybe 1 time every 2 months. 7th grade my favorite color went from green to deep dark black. started getting paints that were long and black, with chains and stuff (I still ware this stuff and I like it). then it was the music. I started hitting up on the metallica heavy, nothing else I have all the metallica cds and a few 12 inch records. I was getting shirts of metallica slipknot, disturbed, Rammstien, and other metal bands, I almost started wareing white make up and black eye shadow.started playing electric guitar. at this time people at church were afraid of me, like I was gun pull out guns and kill them, puzzles me. I start 8th grade (1 year ago) and in september my mom drives me over 1 wednesday to the church, got out and drug me to the youth group room.CONFERMATION. I fit in with noone. I had no friends. I was like I don't want to be here the whole time, I don't know what is going on and I don't want to listen. well I started remembering about this god thing, and I was *** is that???? I started learning about him over the 6 or 7 months. I did some service stuff, and I started meeting people. about half way through, I learned before confermation there was a band and a music worship. they were looking for a guitarist, I was looking for god, what luck? so I joined. about 3 months later I was confermed. then I went on a trip this summer to tennesee for The Great Escape. that changed me, worship like I have NEVER experianced it before. I love it. I got home and was kinda empty. my youth group took the summer off and did 4 different trips. I was only eligible for the one (great escape). but now we have started back up and I just got back from our Encounter as we call it. It is great leading people to god!
and now I think I need to go do a quite time. then bed. so that is my story just thought I would say hey god rocks!
