Whenever I click on your link, a message box says:
"The requested page could not be found."
BTW: The "Why I'm A Christian" link listed on the SavedBYGrace home page seems to be working okay.

Hello;
I'm originallly from San Diego, did three years active duty in the US Army from
1961-1964, and retired from work as an industrial welder in 2006.
I missed Viet Nam, but was right in the middle of the Cuban missile crisis. My unit
was fully armed and equipped ready to be in the air within one hour had JFK given
us the green light. We normally received our parachutes on the tarmac but that
time we already had them with us in the barracks.
I and my wife have been together since 1980. We have one son and two
grandsons; and currently reside in Oregon not far from INTEL's massive Ronler
Acres complex in Hillsboro, and roughly the same distance form NIKE's campus in
Beaverton.
* I was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in Nov 2022. It's potentially lethal but
not instantly fatal like automobile accidents and strokes. Radiation and chemo
therapy have slowed it down quite a bit and prevented the stuff from killing me
right away, thus allowing me time to pack my bags, so to speak.
You know what I really, really hate about death? The afterlife is an alien world with
which I am totally unfamiliar; and when I leave here, I will be leaving behind
everything near and dear to me, e.g. photos, mementos, souvenirs, collections,
sights and sounds, mountains, creeks, rivers and forests, clothing and equipment,
tools, landmarks, entertainment, hobbies, my spouse, BFF, and my old Ford Ranger
pick-up truck, etc, etc.
The culture shock tsunami of leaving all that I know & love and going to a foreign
land where I know & love nothing at all, is not my idea of a good time. Personally; I
dread the thought of having to start all over again from scratch.
But at least I will be starting over. The poor wretches down below have nothing pleasant
to expect.

Chaya - I am not a jazz fan (although I do listen to it occasionally).
I went to the shop to buy a sax and instead bought a guitar!! Just something that I could learn to make a joyful noise to the Lord!! (Athough some may say my guitar playing is anything but a joyful noise)
My music taste is more in the realm of Third Day, Caedom's Call, Mercy Me and a lot of various style of worship music.
What music do others on the forum enjoy?
Jazzif the intonation of tour guitar is right trust me it can be absolutely joyful and it's a noise you'll grow to love. Try using to make your guitar more suitable for worship songs.

Hi, Janine, you look lovely, but please don't get the wrong idea, I'm not trying to "chat you up", that would be a bit pointless when I'm miles too old, besides it's not a dating site here, just trying to be friendly as I can't help noticing how there never seems to be anyone on this forum whenever I visit, it doesn't seem to be that active and no-one's replying to my post that I put on several days ago, and I used to be on another Christian chat forum a few years back that was really good and had plenty of friendly folk there but it closed down and now there doesn't seem to be any really active UK based Christian chat sites any more, but just the odd very few which seem to be seriously inactive and long out of date as well as big multi-national ones which are always far too complex. So I thought I'd just say hello.
Thank you for the lovely welcome. The forum does seem very quiet. You can email me or Teleguard me if that is easier?

Good morning Janine, I wouldn't advise placing your personal contact details on the site, remember these pages are public and can be seen by millions, and not just members, and not just by Christians either and they don't need to be logged in so I'd advise removing your contact details from here or else you could end up falling victim to someone with seriously wrong intentions, and you're so extremely precious.
I've removed them now. I didn't realise that. Please DM me if you would like my contact details.

Hi, Janine, where are you from? I'm from west London, England, UK, and west London is super filthy rich territory, but I'm not, and I never lived in W. London, I was only born there, and now I'm in a small little known town in east Lancashire, in north west England, and I've been there well over 50 years now, since I was in single figures, and it's full of criminals here, the whole town is like one big bail hostel, and so is much of whole borough and there's 1000's of people here and I don't know any of them. And I've lived on the same road for over 50 years too, and nearly 40 in the same house and all alone all that time without ever having any personal company, but it's ok, I'm not looking for pity, and right now I couldn't even share any affection with anyone because of appalling health problems with my hands. And it's great to see you've kept yourself so totally natural, just as the good Lord created you. I just hate it when I see women all plastered in suntan or worse still tattoos and/or piercings, and with their hair all messed up too, and I can't help thinking somewhere underneath all that stuff there's a much nicer looking woman. And I've never had any love life at all because of so many appalling life ruining health problems which most people including most Christians have no idea even exist. And I would like to have married a lovely natural brunette with lovely long dark hair and have a little miniature of her as I just absolutely adore little girls, as to me there's nothing more lovely in all the world, but while little sproglets are so adorable some of the things they do nearly give you heart failure as they just don't know the dangers and I've witnessed too many near misses with little ones.

Hello everyone!
First time poster My name is Daily Corvid, I am a YouTube preacher. Thought I would try the internet out to seek out more Christian brothers and sisters - I don't come across too many that live in my own country, 70% of my audience are American and Australian. God bless you all, I am looking forward to getting to know you all and sharing our love of Christ together.
God bless you all.

Thanks. Nice to meet you too.
Hi CrowDavid,Hello everyone!

Can I ask how much of the Bible you believe as practically all the preachers I've met over last 11 years seem to think believing the Bible is optional and they all prefer Darwin's ridiculous evolution to GOD and Creation.
I spend quite a bit of my time correcting wrong beliefs but it is a depressing task.
Hey guys, I hope you don't mind me posting some poetry as it's a way for me to help keep the faith. I will post it in journals I hope you like them but never mind if you don't I just wanted somewhere to put them.
