I figured I would join the website and forums in order to get a better understanding on Christianity. As an agnostic, I struggle with the many ideas and beliefs presented in the Bible. Yet, I do feel this pull at times to being a Christian.

When I was younger, around 14, I was pressured into being saved at my local First Baptist, so I didnt really believe I was saved. Next, my church basically split at a "church business meeting" right in front of my eyes in a very mean fashion.

Craziness.

So I drank a lot in high school but now im doing good and about to graduate college in less than a year, and im basically trying to find my place in life, and its stressing and upsetting.

So.....:). Good to be here.

It sounds like God is tugging at your heart. I believe you came to the right place. I would suggest you keep reading the Word so you can get to know God better and when the time's right, pray the sinner's prayer. God loves you very much! That I know :) Keep searching, you'll find more than you could ever dream of.

PS God bless you! I'm so happy to have you here and I hope you find everything your heart is searching for. I'm going to be starting my senior year of college in September and I'm getting a lil worried myself... not sure about every little detail, but honestly I know all I have to do is turn my heart to the Lord and He'll guide me. :)

The soul hardly ever realizes it, but whether he is a believer or not, his loneliness is realy a homesickness for God. -Hubert van Zeller

Our old church ruined our kids too. I will not forgive their meanness and what they did to the families for a very long time. I sometimes wonder at all where is the Christianity in churches. So I feel very much like you have stated.... and it does much harm when a church behaves like that.

Welcome to Christian Forums, and be sure to check out the FAQs to answer your questions about everything that is unfamiliar to you.
