    Hello everyone. I'm a wife of 25 years (this August) and mom to three young men. Our youngest just graduated high school. We home schooled all three of our boys and its time for this mamma to retire from teaching:) We attend an independent baptist church. I'm originally from Alabama. I love to study and read God's Word and I look forward to gleaning from those of you more studious than myself. A few of my hobbies are piano, reading Christian literature or a fictional novel, traveling, and I enjoy movies on the rare occasion that a decent one comes out. I love to find creative ways of passing out tracts. I firmly believe that His Word will not return void. I'm fascinated with the study of prophesy. I'm not looking for the signs of the end times. I'm listening for the trumpet! I was saved as a young girl and I'm very thankful for my parents that took me to church every time the door was open. They are both in Heaven today and I can't wait to see them again! God bless you all!

    Welcome to the board. I'm proud of my two young men--one graduated early from college last December and the younger one is going to be a sophomore at the U of Minn next fall.

    Like you, I love to study the Word and I also enjoy reading, reading, reading. I'm wondering what Christian novels you've read and liked? I have a few favorite authors of Christian fiction, Randy Singer (legal thrillers), Alton Gansky (action/adventure), Chris Walley (sci-fi), C.S. Lewis, James Scott Bell (legal and other thrillers). I'm sure I'm forgetting some. I also read non-Christian authors but I would prefer to read Christian authors. The problem is most of them aren't the greatest writers.

    I have a lot of respect for Clemson, especially their coach. Well done Clemson on beating us. I'm an Alabama fan win or lose but I'm not easily riled up over it. I've had plenty of years to enjoy being national champs. I don't mind letting Clemson enjoy theirs.

    Not a problem:) Thank you for the welcome! Side note: Crystal is my middle name. I searched Scripture for a phrase to use for my username. I found clear as crystal in a few places so I went with it. My first name is a difficult one that most people can't pronounce so I'm used to be calling all kinds of names!
