sorry, didn't see this forum till afterward. Guess I was supposed to post here first. Anyway, I'm new here and so I wanted to introduce myself.

I am a 26 year old Male. I am married to a wonderful woman and have three beautiful young children. I was born and raised and am still located in North Central Arkansas. I have been a Christian practically my whole life as I was raised in a Christian home and "accepted Christ" at around 6 years old. It wasn't until I was in my early teens that my relationship with God began to climb to a much higher and much more REAL level. I am very inquisitive and analytical and favor the socratic method of both learning and teaching. Question EVERYTHING.

I found these forums in a search for online bible studies and having already posted a couple times I like what I am seeing. I havn't been to the debate forums yet, but speaking of the bible study forums I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised at the level of knowledge and the openmindedness of the patrons. I hope to glean much knowledge from you all and perhaps in some small way I will be able to contribute by posting some of the things God has revealed to me in hopes that it will help someone else.

God bless.
Joe

Welcome fallen!

My Dad lived in Gentry Ark for many years before he passed away (1988).

I also believe it's healthy and wise to question and this is a good place to do that. Questioning often helps cement your beliefs and/or gives you a broader understanding (and sometimes a new understanding) of what you read in the bible.

This is a good place to ask questions.

Luv

Hi, and welcome.

If you are ever planning to be in the NW corner of Arkansas, let me know. Perhaps we can visit, face to face.
