    I'm a deep thinker. My faith is important to me. I'm in kind of a weird place in my walk. Not a Baptist. Still a Christian but not necessarily trying to be super attached to that label either.

    One of my strengths:
    I'm really good with heavy topics that involve soul wrenching levels of grief. I'm a good listener if you need someone to talk to. I'm not a therapist or anything official like that. But if you need someone, I'm here.

    One of my flaws:
    Sometimes I take life too seriously. I don't think I laugh often enough.

    It’s a special art to be able to laugh during grief without causing offense. Don’t worry about “measuring up” to others. You can still have joy in the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Oh, and there’s plenty of shallow thinking here to counter your own deep thinking. :Wink

    You are going to fit right in with the rest of us, confused, questioning Christ followers. We do not always agree, well actually we rarely agree but we are just a big family with the usual squabbles.

    Welcome to the board, new voices are always welcome.

    @Christina1

    ....disregard this erroneous remark (he's wrong a lot) and take note of all the lil' bright green check marks with the word 'agree' at the bottoms of the posts, along with the 'likes', and 'winners',

    KY now you know that is not a true statement. It is not the like or winner marks that always point to the truth. Compare what the post says against what the bible says in context. The bible is the standard not what any of us post.

    I did a little checking.
    For Silverhair almost 1/16th of his posts got agreements.
    For kyredneck : around 1/7th
    For E-W-F : around 1/24th
    For Tyndale : around 1/5th
    For me : about 1/7th

    Well your list just shows that I am not a people pleaser. But then again the truth of God's word does tend to upset many people.
