Catch Up!

Hey everyone!

I'm sure most of you noticed i've taken a near year absence, so I thought I just fill everyone in!

Last year I was In north dakota in Welding School While at the Same time working for a Christian oil company as a welder. I just recently graduated top of my class with 6 certifications in welding, straight A's in all my classes, and great work resume!

and I have so decided this year to stay home close to my sick mother and with all my great bible buddies and attend college in Richmond at VCU for mechanical engineering before returning to the oil fields.

Spiritually wise it's been a bit rough but i've soldiered on. I struggled with drinking a bit with my fellow welders, picked up chewing, and really was slacking on my bible/ theology readings. But pretty much the second I returned home and was surrounded by my massive wave of fellow supportive christians I got my self straight again. I'm now the historian/ lesson planner for our massive non-denominational bible outreach group here in stafford. I know that may be a bit shocking to some of you considering how minimal my biblical knowledge used to be, but my horizons really expanded my senior year of high school when i did almost nothing in all of my classes except read the bible and then go home and read about each book in depth ( thus the 2.5 GPA).

I'm now currently methodist, and for some reason feel very drawn to catholicism and now all my friends use the arguments against Catholicism i told told them again me :lol:

I'm also now trying to compete in Crossfit competitions :ebiggrin:

Well I hope that fills everybody in, and if your new here, well now you know me.

Oh, and i'm trying to come back to this forum for good.

:amen:

Welcome back Murray, I am glad you are back on the narrow path.

What is chewing? Tobacco? If it is I would definitely give that the flick ASAP!!

Looking forward to seeing some more of you.

Dan
