Being a Christian is the best adventure you could begin.  God is there and He loves you.   He wants you to know His love, His forgiveness and acceptance through Christ.  He has a plan and purpose for each human life.  He also deserves our love and devotion.  To be a Christian is to be living the fullest human life possible.
