Oh my gosh I’m so happy that you contacted me..Welcome Pamela, good to have you here with us. Greetings from Scotland
I haven’t been able to talk to people for a very long time. How is it living in Scotland? It must be beautiful?Oh my gosh I’m so happy that you contacted me..
Hello Pamela . I am just cooking dinner here (yes, a late dinner!), but I am wondering how much of the Bible you have read? Do you like cinematic depictions of Biblical events? The Gospel of John has been made into movies, and the Gospel of Luke, too, and possibly even others. I know there was a series on Acts, also... and if you have time, perhaps these Alpha Course videos would benefit you. They are designed mainly to draw seekers to Christ, I think, but they are great for people of faith at any stage .
There are 10 or 11 videos total. I hope you watch them. They could benefit you greatly

I still can’t use my start conversation feature and I already paid for my membership. I already sent an email to them, but I’ve gotten no response through the contact us feature at the bottom of the page. Can you send me that link again to contact that man I don’t know what to do I’ve already paid.
Also, I am a Christian and it would be nice to be involved in a Bible study online but I’m still trying to navigate through this website. I can’t talk to any person individually because I can’t use to start conversation feature. Please help me get that resolved if you can please thanks for all your help and I hope you enjoyed your late dinner. Sincerely, Pam.
Hello @Pamela127, as I said in a reply to a different thread or post of yours, I believe that you'll need 5 "Likes" (which you already have 
) and 25 "Posts" (at this moment you have 18) to start a private "Conversation" with another member.
If you reply with a quick "OK" or Thanks" etc., to this post and six more (that you have not replied to yet) you should be able to start private "Conversations" at that point.

Pamela, please try talking to others in the many forums and threads available from the main page of Christian Chat while you are waiting to have your membership privileges activated by RoboOp. Read through any that interest you and feel free to jump into any conversation at any time! There are plenty of threads in the Singles Forum especially designed to help people get acquainted with others here, but even just by participating randomly you will come to know people and we will get to know you... and there are many threads in Miscellaneous, Bible Discussion, and other forums that may delight you, elucidate you, edify you etc. On the main page of https://christianchat.com/ every Forum you see listed along the left hand side is a link you can click on to see the threads that are active there... then just click on any thread title that grabs your attention to see what is going on in there, as in, who is saying what to whom, and reply to posts as you feel led...
Dearest David, unless something major has changed, a new member must financially support this site in order to get PM privileges. Since Pamela just joined last night, it may take Robo a day or two before he gets around to taking care of such matters. I am not sure how often he is on any more, but a while back it was about once a week... though that may have been a one time thing. Although having said that, anyone with messaging abilities can start a conversation with Pamela. Generally it is considered better to get to know people a little before jumping in to PMs with them, though...Hello @Pamela127, as I said in a reply to a different thread or post of yours, I believe that you'll need 5 "Likes" (which you already have

"Perhaps the encouragement you are hoping for may be found, then it may depend on
exactly what it is that encouragement is felt needed in your life.
About the Bible being a vast objective. And that of which 'Christian' sites are often
short of spiritual encouragement....I leave it with you to ponder."

Hey Magenta, thank you for the update. The requirements that you just mentioned above are different from the ones that were in place when I joined a little over 5 years ago (and that was what I was basing my replies to Pamela on, IOW, old data, at least what I remembered anyway).
Thank you for clearing that up for her (and for me too)
God bless you!!

David... the new platform was put in place about two weeks before you joined. Before then,Hey Magenta, thank you for the update.

which was close to the end of May, 2018, anyone could message other members without
having to make a financial donation to the site. The status under a person's name, however,
does change with number of posts made, though I am not sure of when those happen...
You are welcome! .
. And God bless, you, too!!!!

Hi Pamela, good to hear you you. Yes Scotland is a beautiful country. The Highlands and Islands especially. It's easy to strike up conversations with people here, a friendly, welcoming place. God Bless

Fillan that’s what I’m hoping for. How was your day today? Did you do anything special? I bet Scotland’s a very pretty country. It would’ve been nice if I could’ve seen it but it won’t be in this lifetime lol. But I’ll get to see heaven and that’ll be the best!! maybe you could send me some pictures sometime of Scotland. I would like to see them.. i’m gonna try to answer your other post and hopefully I know what I’m doing lol great to hear from you again and have a fantastic evening or day. By the way I live in Sacramento California and I’m 60 years old.. love Pam may God bless you and keep you safeHi Pamela, good to hear you you. Yes Scotland is a beautiful country.

David, thanks so much for your input. That was very hopeful for me to know that my start conversation feature will eventually work. I hope you had a great day today and I hope to hear from you soon. I really enjoy talking to you and People here are online.. I have one more question—- if you want to, can you ever give anybody your phone number once you’re in a conversation with them where you can talk to them on the phone? I look forward to hearing from you again soon, hopefullyHello @Pamela127, as I said in a reply to a different thread or post of yours, I believe that you'll need 5 "Likes" (which you already have
