Finally checking this site out! Is it fun?

[OdaPunkt]

Hi!

I joined a long time ago but never actually took a look on the website or posted anything. I am a 36 year-old Norwegian female living in chosen celibacy. I spend several hours praying every day and live a peaceful life. I am also a theological writer and have published three books through Wipf and Stock. I believe that Jesus died for our sins so he could free us from shame so that we can live in truth. But for those who forsake the truth, that is not what he died for. I hope I can have a lot of good conversations in here!

Thanks for reading,
Oda

John 8:31-36
New International Version
To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
33 They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?”
34 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

I wouldn’t say so much fun as a word to describe it. It’s enlightening and reassuring to know others out there believe in the same things.

Welcome Odapunkt, find an interesting topic in one of the forums and join it. Also, I am not sure if it is good or bad, but it seems we are both working with the same publisher.

Well, I get so excited when things are enlightening that I can hardly sit still!

Thank you so much! I am a bit nervous though I know many Christians disagree on many things.

Thats really interesting! I am Norwegian and also I have been living under a rock in recent years so I never really connected with people in the industry, it would be cool to do that eventually though! Is there any kind of community related to the publisher or social media or some place you all connect?
