Introducing...jedi180

[jedi180]

I was born in 1987. I currently reside in Denver, CO. I grew up in a Christian household and have only recently fully grasped the reality of Christianity. (I "asked Jesus into my heart" when I was 5, but I didn't really know what it all meant back then).

I'm not the greatest Christian; in fact I must say I'm probably one of the worse ones. I've got lots of problems that I constantly struggle with, but that is what a Christian's life is full of. It's not easy, but in the end, as we learn in the Scriptures, it's worth it.

I think it's great that this forum was started; it is an escape from the persecution I and others have faced in other forums across the net. I hope it grows into a thriving community of culturally diverse but theologically unified Christians!

Welcome Jedi, from one who still struggles, though the fight is much easier with God on my side!

I have spoken to you before, jedi180, and you know that I am happy that you would come to share with us in our forum. But this is my official "Welcome". Join in whenever you get the opportunity.

Incidentally, don't thing you're alone. All of us struggle, though many have learned to mask it in church with an air of piety. That is why so many think the church is populated with hypocrites! Hopefully, people will be able to share their thoghts and struggles with us. We will pray WITH you, not simply "for" you...because we are all needed within the body of Christ.

God bless and keep you and yours, my brother...
