Say Hi, Gracie (Newbies say hello thread)

[ReadingForOrders]

but we require trouble and challenges from this fellowship! We all agree that we can be hardest on each other but when one becomes the sole arbiter and proclaimer of his/her pronouncements, even on behalf of some faith or viewpoint...they are quickly dispatched.

We welcome friendly dissenters and those that encourage insight and empathy towards others. Please contribute!

Thank you I look forward to getting to know all of you.

Hi, I'm Allison, mom of three boys (2, 4, and 6), psychology/sociology student, wife for 7.5 years.

I've recently started attending a UU church as they come closest to my beliefs. I've been a Christian my whole life, a liberal Christian for about five years. Motherhood and education opened my eyes to a lot of things.

I've been looking for a forum like this for a long time. I can't wait to learn more from you all.

Hi Welcome! So what were your eyes opened to when you became a mother?

(They gave me a pretty warm welcome here so I thought I would try to contribute a little of the same)

Hello there :wave I'm not a newbie to the site, but I am to this sub-forum so I thought I would say hi

I haven't been a Christian for very long , a matter of days, in fact, but I have been a few years in getting to were I am now (and I've never been happier).

I am definitely a liberal thinker and after lurking for a while and reading some of the threads, I decided to take the plunge and I've added my name to the roll-call list.

Thank you very much for reading this and I look forward to seeing you around the forums soon

Minty. xx

Hello Everyone - I'm Bex - like allilyn11 I am a mother - to two boys, not 3 (thank heavens - lol!!) This is only my 2nd post in cf and I have not a clue what I'm doing or where I'm supposed to be but......
I've been a Christian only 2 years (Jesus hit me over the head with a brick Good Friday 2006!) and have been described by many as a "progressive" or "very liberal" Christian - I'm keen to explore my new faith and make new friends!
Thanx for reading and have a lovely Easter!!

Luv Bex xo

I'm Amy, obviously. This was my second (and last) username at a now defunct board.. and I know a few here from somewhere else.. but I'm not going to bother with that name. Not that it matters.

I have been lurking here for a long time.. Since June, I think. Got bored after my main place went down. One topic prompted me to register. I've seen a lot that I liked.. but I guess I had to have the one last push.

So.. yeah. Hi. I've been watching you... lol

Hi everyone and welcome to Christian Forums! You've been blessed by a CF Angel.

My name is FaithfulWife and I'm glad you're here. This place can be big and confusing, so here are a few things that might help you:

Christian Forums has a newsletter, so to see what's happening around here and read all the latest news, come to The Forum Focus!

To get blessings, you can go to the Blessings Exchange forum. We play games and take quizzes to earn blessings! You can also get 100 blessings from me just for meeting one friend: FaithfulWife's Newbie Blessing Game!

To get a character, Click Here or go to the top of the page sort of in the middle, and click on [Character]. You will need to select a body, hair, eyes, lips, and eyebrows/facial hair. I personally chose NOT to have a beard!
We also have two forums for some free clothes: Armory Giveaway for Newbies and Free Clothes for Newbies.

Finally, you might want to look in the Life Stages forums to find a group that fits you. I'm in the Women's Discussion, Parenting, and Marriage Ministry, and there's a life stage there to fit YOU!

If you have any newbie questions you can give me a Private Message (PM) anytime.

hi there, i am the new one for now. i'm glad i found this forum. i am definitely Christian but too liberal and open-minded of other religions and views to go to church anymore. i stay on my spiritual path by myself, which is pretty lonely, i must admit. been reading on here for a couple of days and i really like it. i didn't know there were other liberal Christians. it's nice to know i am not alone.

Welcome Angini!

Welcome new peoples!

 

[Kris10leigh]

I just realized I never actually introduced myself here so !

I can be found mostly in the Messianic forums. I think I am the only progressive minded one there. But that's ok because they're all very nice and welcoming to me.

I am actually a Christian who follows Yeshua in a Messianic manner. In other words, I am not Jewish. I think the icons make that a bit confusing.

I hope that along my journey to find what I believe is the truth I do not lose my open mind.

 

[Protinus]

we know kris and we love you for being here. We must learn from our Messianic brethren, regardless of how they come to their faith or profess their faith! It is so interesting how you are professing your faith!

Welcome and contribute! We tend to rally around the disparaged. Please help us forge a new awareness that is inclusive yet a force to be reckoned with!

Hey, i'm Isobel. I'm not totally sure about my faith, i think i'd describe myself as a liberal christian. I'm pro choice, i think euthanasia can be acceptable, and i'm questioning my sexuality. I don't agree particularly with some typically christian view points, but it's the religion that i most identify with. I'm not sure if i really described myself very well, but hey. I'm glad to be here, and i look forward to getting to know you
