Hi,

My name is Jennifer Ellen. I am currently residing in Edmonton, Alberta Canada.
I am a baby Christian, and joined this Christian chat to deepen my relationship with the Boss, hopefully through His people and build more of a sense of community with like minded people.

Since I joined I have been trying to look around the Forum and learn more about it, the people in it. I'll be honest, it's been years since I've participated in an online community, and back then, it wasn't one of God like lifestyles. I have seen quite a few posts that speak a lot of anger, especially in regards to Joyce Meyers, and rude comments towards other forum participants. I am sure there is more to being here than that so I am still here and reaching out.

Is there is a paid portion to this community that gives you different access than the free part I am experiencing right now?

I have not tried the chat feature, but installed it on my MAC today and it said I had connection issues. Is this a paid subscription only?

I have other questions, but wanted to introduce myself, and I hope to be able to develop some godlike friendships with others.

Thank you for those who have administered this service and I am very grateful I randomly came across this resource.

In faith,
Jennifer Ellen

Isaiah 30:18 AMPC
And therefore the Lord [earnestly] waits [expecting, looking, and longing] to be gracious to you; and therefore He lifts Himself up, that He may have mercy on you and show loving-kindness to you. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are all those who [earnestly] wait for Him, who expect and look and long for Him [for His victory, His favor, His Love, His peace, His joy, and His matchless, unbroken companionship]!

Welcome to CC. :) For future reference, such questions belong in the User to User Tech forum, but anyhoo. Yes, in the chat rooms, there are certain paid features. I'm not sure what they are, because I never go there.. lol

You may find more answers on this if you search in the user to user forum. :)

Chat rooms are free, with options that open if you donate. The exact changes seem to be in a constant state of flux, so I'm not sure what they are currently.
The forums are 100% free and provide no benefit to donate.
It seems Mac users keep having trouble with the app, but the apps are still technically beta versions.

Much of the anger stems from the BDF (Bible Discussion Forums). Much ego there. And lots of religion, but little involving God. They've began spreading around the site and the mean spirited attitude is growing to others.
But there are still some friendly people around.
Many see Joyce Meyers as a prosperity preacher. Or st least influenced by the prosperity gospel. Which is a dangerous and unbiblical teaching. I suspect she has some mixed in with better teaching, but a little lie and a lot of truth still contains a lie.

If you have questions about the site post them in User2User Tech. It may be a good idea to look through them a little first to see if your questions have already been answered previously.
Also there is a sticky post under the New Users forum called Updated Help For New Users. The chat portion is out of date, though. But the forum help should still be useful.

Welcome to the site.

A lot of peeps from Canada on this site so you should feel at home. I'm just another sinner saved by grace too like yourself. I believe that with a paid subscription (don't even know what it cost) you get access to all of the chat rooms besides the Lounge and Bible Study which I believe are free to all. On this site there are two basic types, the chat peeps and the forum peeps. In my opinion the most meaningful conversations take place in the forums. Depending on the thread, and time of day, you can often receive a rapid response to your post, usually in a few minutes. Glad to have you join us. Welcome to CC.
