This is my Church and I'm happy to be here.
I'd challenge anyone to find a more dedicated gathering of saints anywhere outside the Scriptures!
For a long time, I longed to get better in my Christian walk. I figured, I'd been a Christian for ten years, enough playing around. But I was depressed and tossed about with wave after wave of doctrinal jargon and lies. They basically told me if I just had enough trust in the grace of Jesus covering my sin, my lack of spiritual fruit and lukewarmness would disappear.
I have grown more in two years of Narrow Way than ten years of my time of confusion, chasing down apostate churches, trying to nail down these "grace" doctrines, and trying to fix myself without earnestly getting rid of all the sin in my life.
Here, I'm never treated like I can't understand or read the Bible for myself. I'm never dismissed just because I'm young. The standard is high and I like it that way because I know God would have us really get it together!
Now I know that pleasing God is difficult but simple. The blessing is always in obedience.
I love you guys because we all want the same thing: to be better servants of Jesus Christ. And all of your posts point to that. I'm very proud of all who post regularly here. It may be odd because I've never met some of you in real life.
But I'm very proud of you. I have never met a group of people so earnest in their desire to please the Lord.

John 13:34-35 King James Version 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Thank you Tabitha for your kind words about Narrow Way, and you are loved and appreciated. I am glad the brothers and sisters here have helped you. They certainly help me press forward. Everyone is family here and I feel like everyone genuinely cares about one another.
