Hi! First, I'm going to start out by filling out the survey...that should get most of the basic stuff out of the way. =)
Name (or screen name): Jessi
E-mail address: jessi@truthmail.com
Gender: Female (isn't everyone on the list?)
Age: 16
Location: Charleston, West Virginia
Are you home schooled, or do you go to a Christian, private, or public
school? I go to a public high school. All things considered, it's not a bad school...and there are lots of opportunities to be a witness. =)
Denomination (this is important to some people, but not me): I go to a Baptist church, but I'm not big on denominations, either. We shouldn't divide ourselves...I think that's a big part of the reason the church in America doesn't have more influence...we can't all agree on anything.
Interests: God, sports (softball, soccer, karate), talking to my friends and people online
Likes: strawberries, giraffes, and music
Dislikes: meat, spiders, and most TV shows
Musical tastes: I like a lot of different types of music, but I prefer to listen to Christian stuff...I'd much rather have something running through my head that glorifies God than a bunch of pointless words. =)
Favorite movie(s): I don't really have one...
Favorite book(s): Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis...it's an awesome book! Some things, you have to concentrate to get what he's trying to say, but once you get a feel for the way he writes, it's pretty easy reading. I'd definately reccomend it to all Christians and non-Christians.
Favorite actor(s) and/or actress(es): Julia Roberts and Matt Damon
What's your (short) testimony? Well, I didn't really grow up in a Christian home...my parents were good people, we just didn't go to church. I went to church sometimes with friends, but I never really understood...never got what all the fuss was about. Finally, when I was 14, I realized what Jesus had done for us, and I decided it was time to get things where they should be with God. Since then, I started going to church every Sunday...I brought my brother and sister to church with me...my sister got saved this past summer! (She's 11) My brother's 7...I think he might be a little too young. And, my mom has started going to church again...God's been very good. Well, this said short, so I'd better move on. =)
What's your web page address? I have one...but I haven't worked on it in a long time, so I'd rather not give out the addy.
What else should we know about you? Hmm...I'm a brown belt in karate, a vegetarian, and I work at Dairy Queen about 4 days a week...I'm not online as much as I'd like to be! Also, my AIM name is Jessica5184...feel free to IM me any time I'm on...I always love to talk to other Christians!
