Hello! I'm Karl.

I was born in Europe & came to the US when I was 4.

I went to Catholic private schools in California from ages 8 - 15. I decided I was an agnostic at 15 & began to think deeply about the world.

I began going to evangelical churches when I was 19, and after doing some reading I decided it was the right way to go!

My friend made me listen to a lot of John MacArthur's teaching. I ended up going to Israel with him on a tour. Years later, I spent a year taking classes at The Masters Seminary.

I have taken classes on Hebrew, both modern & biblical. I also enjoyed my brief time with a messianic congregation in South Carolina.

As a creative person, I've always enjoyed costuming. This led me to become interested in the clothing of biblical times & biblical movies.

I enjoy trying to figure out our world. Critical thinking, philosophy & psychology are fascinating to me.

1 Thessalonians 5
23 May the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body
be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.

Welcome to CC, Brother Karl!:) We are so glad you came. Jesus loves you and so do we. The "discussions" on the Bible Discussion Forum can get rather colorful, as opinions often get presented as facts. We do try to play nice like good little porcupines:). Be led by the Spirit and be Berean, my brother.
