Hey Everyone!
Wow, to start off, I am immensely glad that I found this forum. I love this website and I am constantly reading something new everyday and sharing it with others. Tentmaker Ministries has been such a tremendous blessing for myself (and others that I have shared stuff with, that is, those that have ears to listen!). Though I'm quite embaressed to admit that I just now found a link to this forum.

But, my name is Paul, I'm 17, I live in California. As you can see, I'm definitely a Christian!
I enjoy reading, fictional, the Bible
of course. I'm currently trying (yes, trying) to read the Left Behind adult series, I'm currently on the last prequel book, The Rapture, only have one chapter read. I've been extremely busy with school since late August and have had not much time to read. (I waste all my time online or reading my Bible )
I Love music, I'm addicted to music. I like a variety of Christian Music, from Contemporary Worship/Praise, to Rock, and Rap/Hip-Hop. If it's Christian and I like the lyrics I'll listen to it. But don't ask me to list which songs and singers I like that would take all day.
I'm homeschooled, yes, I am. I enjoy it a lot, I have a lot of free time (or do I?). No, I do, but I'm doubling up on school work trying to graduate earlier this year so I'm pretty swamped!
What else.. Oh, I love The Sims 2 (computer game). Maybe you've heard of it. Haha. Most of the websites I am involved in are Sims related. Its been my favorite game for 7 years now, one of my addictive (and used to be)
obsessive hobbies. I have every Sims game you can think of. But I'm not as obsessed as I used to be. I'm more "obsessed" with the Scriptures and studying the Bible.
Oh, but I'm addicted to Halo 3 just as bad...
Hmm, ok, well background info, I've been a Christian "all my life" you could say, I was raised a Christian. But it wasn't until when I was about 15 that I actually stopped "living the motions" of trying to please my mom and truly gave my life over to Christ. Its been a wonderful ride, and experience, so far. I am in awe everyday that I wake up to God's Glory and His Presence in my Life!
My parents are divorced, have been since I was like 3. Both are remarried, I have 3 brothers. 1 by my Dad with my Step-mom and then my Mom had me and my two other brothers. God said No sisters for me.
That's about it for me!
Well, except the fact that I love sharing my beliefs with people, even if it means debating. You could say I love debating and apologetics, it's definietly one of my favorite hobbies now. I've pretty much worn out the Universal Salvation topic to death at ChristianBoard.com with everyone there.
Look forward to meeting everyone and getting to know some new people! If anyone's interested, I regularly post on 3 forums:
