I've heard so much about it.
I've decided to try it out.

...I'm beginning my journey as a christian, and I need all the help I can get. There's not really that much else to it...

God Bless you Seleana. Jesus is the right path. The way, the Truth and the Life. I'll be praying for you hard mate. God has got you in his loving arms.
There will be tough times still, but Jesus brings a hope, a meaning and a purpose in life. Woohoo! This is so good.

And remember, don't be afraid to ask. There is no such thing as a stupid question.

By 'church' Mr Smarty Pants means a group of Christian believers to encourage and support you and help you in your Christian walk and that you can worship and praise God with them alongside you.

Hey Seleana,

I'm very glad to read of your decision. As far as words of advice or help, I would say, don't view it as merely a religion, but a relationship. As Christians, we believe in a personal God who loves us and wants us to know Him. He loved us so much that He gave His Son for us.

Get to know Him. Pray and talk to Him. Get into His Word, the Bible. Not just as a form or a ritual, but to find out what He wants to say to you. (When you start reading the Bible, I'd suggest John, then Romans.)

And as MSP and Warrior 4 Jesus have said, get involved in a local church. One way I believe God speaks to us is through relationships with His people. You may have to search a while until you find the right church for you, and don't be discouraged if it doesn't happen right away. I'd suggest talking with a Christian friend that you trust, who can maybe help guide you to a good church.

Hopefully this is of encouragement. And as other posters have said, if you need to talk to someone here, I think most of us would welcome your PMs.
Theme Scripture: Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1)

And a verse for all us single folks: Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? (1 Corinthians 9:5)

Welcome to the family of Christ! *hug*

Don't hesitate to ask questions by PM or a new thread, it is very important to grow in your faith, and anyone here would be very glad to help or direct you to someone who can.

I'll pray for you to grow and become a strong person of faith.

Well, I am going on travel for a couple of weeks, so I am glad I saw this before I left. This is so good to hear. I was actually having a rather lousy day up to now. Even these first steps down the path create blessings for those around you.

And you go through life afraid
