Howdy folks! New guy here :) It looks like all the other people are doing introductions so I suppose I can do the same.
I've been a raised "Christian", though I am ashamed to use that term to describe who I was just a couple of years ago. For all intents and purposes, I was a Sunday-Christian that only really offered lip service. I was raised in a family that shared our stance - not intentionally, but simply because we did not know any better. A couple years ago, I went on a mission trip that made me realize God is very much real. I then got back and was on fire for God, wanting to do all in my power to make Him happy, but still not really understanding the Gospel and how it involved me.
I went off to Africa for a one-year mission trip and ended up being saved, and truly understanding the good news of the gospel, on the mission field. God works in funny ways.
Now I'm back in the US! Age 22 and got a load of passion for learning all I can about my Lord (which is what brought me here). Studying Greek in my spare time when I'm not playing the guitar, and hopefully will find quite a bit of time to spend here as well, learning how to rightly divide the word of truth.
Hope you guys don't mind some young blood :)
Edit: Uh-oh, I made a slight doozy on my join reason. Is there anyway to fix that? I couldn't find it from my end.
