I know I know, I haven't had time to update this section! Sorry to make you keep coming back to find nothing. For now here's the 5 minute version as I posted it on Bebo Norman's message board (see the thread Adonis posted called So what made you jump?)

Here's my story...to start I didn't grow up in a Christian household. I was never a bad kid, in fact now that I think about it I was a boring kid! Anyhow, it wasn't until 5 years ago when I moved down to California that I really began to seek out God. I left my family and friends behind to start a new job here and looking back I see that it was in God's plan for me to come out here.
Being out here alone really caused me to go out and seek him. I think it was the loneliest time in my life and I visited many churches for the first couple years. Through my co-worker I finally found a church that I felt comfortable with and after a few months I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. But you know what? Even though I mouthed those words, looking back now I don't think I really understood what those words meant. I thought I knew what it was to accept Jesus into my life but in hindsight I didn't. It wasn't until this year (almost 2 years after I "accepted" Jesus) that I really felt God calling me to accept him into his life. I was resistant for a while, I felt very comfortable with my life. Why would I want any part of that to change? But over the months as I prayed about it, I felt God changing my heart. Finally in the beginning of April I felt ready to accept Jesus into my life and I committed myself to Him. At the end of May I was baptized to make a public announcement of my old life dying and a new one rising in place and my commitment to God.
