Hello everyone…I’m Derek and I’m looking for a church/bible study group. I live around the medical district area in Dallas. I’m a born again atheist and my theological background is AOG. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

I meant born again from atheism, but I can see where the confusion lies. I should change it….. I used to be an atheist now I’m born again Christian, which is a miracle in itself. lolYou meant you are a born again Christian?
Welcome aboard
Amen!!!
Every born again is a miracle from God. He found us in our darkness, and brought us to His wonderful light.

I’m having a hard time finding out where I can go in and edit that post so that it says more detailed what I just said to you. maybe you can help me with that
Hi Derek! Welcome to CC.
There is a 5 minute editing time limit on all posts.
On a computer/laptop, you can find the EDIT button/icon for those 5 minutes in the lower left hand side of your posted post. I don't know what it looks like on phones/tablets/other devices.
After 5 minutes, the edit button disappears and your 'stuck' with the post remaining as is. 
Well, it might still show for a little bit, but clicking it will tell you your edit window of time is up.If you have any questions about how other things work around here, ask away!
Oh yeah! Same with the 'delete' button. It has a limit timeframe it allows you to delete your posts entirely (most likely also 5 minutes)
Glad to have you join us!
Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate you reaching out to me.
Welcome!
Hello everyone…I’m Derek and I’m looking for a church/bible study group. I live around the medical district area in Dallas. I’m a born again Christian and I used to be an atheist. My theological background is AOG but I did years of study through Dallas theological seminary. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I think I figured out a small hack. If you reply to your own post, you can go back and edit the original and then delete the reply if you’ve missed that five minute window.Hi Derek! Welcome to CC.

welcome welcome, I think it would be great to hear your story and thoughts behind atheism and how God changed your heart. It is always great to know those difficult thoughts to better equip each other.

If I lived in Dallas I would probably attend First Baptist Dallas where Robert Jefress pastors. I've never been a Baptist but I sure do like Robert Jefress.
Oh I am not in america but I follow Corey Minor and he actually made a website where you can add your churches and they are confirmed to be biblically sound. You can maybe find one near you that way too?
