I was falsely converted at the age of 8 years old. By the time I was 16 I was an agnostic and 19ish I became atheist. That all changed after I was 22 years of age. I was reading the Bible in my bedroom and Christ drew me to himself. I actually wanted Him where before I didn't even believe He existed. There's a longer story behind that, do feel free to ask! :)
This is kind of a loaded question. I was exposed to the Doctrines of Grace around May of 2009. It has changed they way I view scripture as a whole and has affected the way I evangelize. These wonderful Doctrines have made me ever closer to the Lord.
I am currently in the NT. I make videos of myself reading scripture and upload them to YouTube. I am currently going through two books: Marriage Divorce and Marriage by Jay Adams and Growing Up in Grace by Murray Brett. I am also studying six non related text books.
Wow this is a difficult question. Besides Christ of course I guess I would have to pick Paul. Paul said in Philippians chapter 3 "...I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else has a mind to put confidence in the flesh, I far more: circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee; as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless. But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ..." This reminds me of myself before Christ. This is why Paul is such a favored character to me because he had plenty reason to boast, but yet he counted it all loss for the sake of Christ.
I am not content with being single. I have a desire to be married. Now that does not effect the way I conduct myself around others or anything like that. My joy will always be full because Christ is my everlasting joy.
I believe my friends would say I'm honest, funny, sincere, and loyal.

Some personality traits that I enjoy in another person are joyful, optimistic, caring, passionate about what they believe, and outgoing. I am attracted to outgoing passionate people that have a good handle on what they believe. This may sound mean, but i get somewhat annoyed by the shy type. The reason why is because it makes me feel like I am in the wrong. I am generally an extrovert, so it makes it hard to get along with an introvert.
Early in my Christian walk I met an older man by the name of James Cagle who challenged me to think and look at scripture and view the world through biblical glasses.
Just to start off with I have been single since the latter end of 2008. As I stated before I was 22 when Christ drew me to Himself and at that time I had a girl friend. We started dating a few weeks after I turned 21. I was an unbeliever of course and she was supposedly a believer. After I got saved things changed for me and things in the relationship still stayed the same pretty much. There was a lot of stuff that was going on that I'm not proud of. I mean before I didn't know what sin was and then when the Lord opened my eyes and I knew what sin was I knew things had to change. To make a very long story short, my ex gf moved closer to where I was going to school. She wanted me to move in with her, but I couldn't do it. She talked me into staying some nights with her, but it just tormented me. So eventually I just had to quit it and break up with her. It was hard because we had been together for almost 3 years. I wish I would have realized it sooner, but I finally came to my senses. I did not intended on breaking her heart or plan on getting saved for that matter, but that's pretty much the jest of what happened.
A man had two sons. The younger of them said to his father, "Father, give me the share of the estate that falls to me" So he divided his wealth between them. And not many days later, the younger son gathered everything together and went on a journey into a distant country, and there he squandered his estate with loose living. Now when he had spent everything, a severe famine occurred in that country, and he began to be impoverished. So he went and hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. And he would have gladly filled his stomach with the pods that the swine were eating, and no one was giving anything to him. But when he came to his senses, he said, "How many of my father's hired men have more than enough bread, but I am dying here with hunger! I will get up and go to my father, and will say to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men.'" So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him. And the son said to him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight; I am no longer worthy to be called your son." But the father said to his slaves, "Quickly bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet; and bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat and celebrate; for this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found." And they began to celebrate. Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing. And he summoned one of the servants and began inquiring what these things could be. And he said to him, "Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound." But he became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and began pleading with him. But he answered and said to his father, "Look! For so many years I have been serving you and I have never neglected a command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I might celebrate with my friends; but when this son of yours came, who has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him." And he said to him, "Son, you have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours. But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has been found."
I was born in Atlanta, GA. I have traveled to all the surrounding states (Alabama, Florida, South and North Carolina, and Tennessee). I have been to Mississippi, Pennsylvania, New York, and Canada. I have only a few memories from New York and Canada because I was very young at the time. I can't remember much of Mississippi either. I remember a great deal of Pennsylvania (I enjoyed it). And of course I remember Florida, Alabama, and Tennessee. I do not remember much of South and North Carolina.
I'll finish the rest later... Feel free to email me or ask me anything :)
