Hi all. I am Branduin from Alabama US. Never been here before but am a member of another online Christian community...but this boggles my mind! Not sure what I am doing.....what are the blessings and stuff?

Anyway, I'm here because of AntsinmyPants. We are friends from work.

Anyway, I like CCM, especially from the 80s and I am one of those Spirit filled Methodist types. :) I went to Auburn University and was active in the Wesley Foundation there. I have been a youth minister and graduated from University of AL in Birmingham with a Master's in Counseling. I am currently out of my field though working in the book business.

Hope I did that right and that I figure out what is going on soon so I can join in!

Oh and my motto is, Jesus Never Fails! :clap:

In Christ,
Branduin

take a peek here: FAQ. These FAQs will explain a lot (though not all) of the somewhat confusing things in the eye-feast of overwhelming CF thingies. You probably read the Terms of Service you agreed to when joining, but now might also be a good time to attempt to read the rules listed here: Rules.

You’ll notice we have an Intro Sticky by the lovely AngelAmidala: http://www.christianforums.com/t1110956-please-read-the-rules-before-posting-thanks.html, that most forums have other ‘Sticky’ introductions that can often be important to read before posting in that forum, and that some of the more popular threads have little numbers beside them (like “Welcome to all new members (4)”) which means they’ve been continued in further incarnations after reaching a 1000 post limit for each thread.

Here are just a few forums that might be helpful in starting to explore the place. Just click on the links and find a place you like:

CF Announcements (what’s going on around here, what’s not working and why)
Report Bugs (not the crawly ones, you’re on your on with those)
CF How-To (Mostly technical questions on site usage)
Regional forums – Where ya from?
Congregations – What church ya go to?
Chatting with individual Staff members (usually in informal ways of friendship)
Friendship Court (no pretzelizing allowed)
Face the Board (which is ‘open’ to all members to ask YOU questions)
Recovery (non-professional help with particular life struggles)
Outreach to non-Christians by Christians, seeker prayers and help from Christians, etc.
Edification (Christians Only) Blogs, Prayers, Testimonies, Advice
Help with creating a CF Homepage
How to become a site supporter (and financially help this ministry)
Help with IRC (Internet Relay Chat)

And if you are looking for things to do besides posting, you can ...

Take quizzes:
http://www.christianforums.com/quiz.php (costs 10 blessings)
Create a character:
http://www.christianforums.com/characters (costs ~150 blessings to begin, but you’ll want to use more to get armor/clothes)
Adopt a pet (and take care of it):
http://www.christianforums.com/pets (costs ~700 blessings to start, but more with upkeep)
Create a blog:
http://www.christianforums.com/blogs
Participate in polls:
http://www.christianforums.com/f4-cf-polls.html
Play games:
http://www.christianforums.com/arcade.php (costs 10 blessings for each game)
Create/Develop a homepage:
http://www.christianforums.com/f651-...iscussion.html

Welcome to Christian Forums. I hope you enjoy your stay here and I pray your spirit will be lifted and your heart will have found a new home.

"Stay" is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary.
-Amos Bronson Alcott

I sought to hear the voice of God
And climbed the topmost steeple,
But God declared: "Go down again-
I dwell among the people."
John Henry Newman
