Ahahaha that's hilarious Ravanna!!!! Awesome names too!!! XD

[Ravanna Dee]

Thanks, M.K. Once I get to know you better, I will definitely give you an original "Ravanna family nick name!" lol! It definitely has a ring to it!!! XD

[Ravanna Dee]

Oh, and another example. We call our Great Grandma, [Big Grandma] Because when we where little, our Great grandpa before he got sick was actually very big, not fat, but an actually big guy [He died six years ago] But we called him big grandpa and then we started calling grandma 'big grandma' too. The rest of our family picked it up and now the whole family, every cousin, aunt, uncle, we all call her that. Big Grandma. She even calls herself that..lol:)

[Aerykah, Co-Moderator]

Hey y'all, I'm Aerykah from Oklahoma. I was given the nickname Aery a couple years ago by some friends here on Goodreads & it has stuck-- like glue-- so feel free to use it if you like. ;)
I was saved by the grace of God at the age of 11. And I'll be 25 in a few months. I'm a homeschool graduate. I love reading (surprised?), photography, writing, music, blogging, big trucks, muscle cars, football... and Sudoku puzzles. Among other things. ;P

Thanks for the invite, Mary Kate! :)

[Frederick]

Hello, folks - I admit I am rather late to the game, but I am Frederick. One could say it's hard to find fellow bookworms (much less Christians), regardless of where I go, so I thought I should give GoodReads a try.

[M.K., Creator And Moderator 🎉]

Hi Frederick! No not at all, just on time. Lol. Yes this is a good place for you to be then! Haha. Welcome to the group! Its a pleasure to meet you! Feel free to jump into any of the topics and discussions. We are also doing a buddy read of the Bible book of Romans if you want to join there. Or we have many ongoing Bible/ book discussions that we would all love to have you a part of. Hope you like the group! I'm Mary Kate and welcome you to Real Christian(:

Hey y'all! I just joined this group yesterday. My name's Andrea, and I love reading books, watching movies, and hanging out with my friends and family. I'm memorizing 2 Corinthians 4:6-18 right now, one verse at a time. It's so beautiful and powerful. Does anyone else like to memorize Scripture?

[M.K., Creator And Moderator 🎉]

Hi Andrea!! I'm Mary Kate and its awesome to meet you!! Thanks for joining (: Oh wow! That is very beautiful verses there! I also love to memorize verses!! I was trying to memorize Psalms 113. I have memorized verse 1-2 so far. Haha. Don't know how far I will be able to go. Lol(:

[Timothy]

To Andrea:

Greetings to thee. I am new to this as thou art! :) Yes indeed I do enjoy memorising scripture from sundry books of the Bible. . .

Blessings to thee!

[Timothy]

To Chanel:

Greetings! Glad thou art back once more. I rejoice and Praise God with thee, for great things He hath done and is still doing!

[Andrea]

Thanks for the warm welcome! Glad to see others here are also working on memorizing God's Word. This is my first year to be dedicated to that goal, and I'm already seeing many blessings because of it. I hope y'all also see many blessings from your memory work.

[Timothy]

Blessings do come indeed!

"Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." Psalm 119:11

"The entrance of thy words giveth life; it giveth understanding unto the simple." Psalm 119:130

[Timothy]

Mankind liveth not upon bread alone, but from every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God doth mankind live.

His Word is vital. . .for victory o'er the minions of darkness and Light pierceth the darkness!

Glad to meet thee! :))

[Halee]

I'm really new to this group!! What exactly is the Bible Buddy thing?

[Halee]

Hey everyone! My name is Halee! I'm 13 years old, lover of vintage and bookish things. I was saved at 7 but I re-dedicated my life to fully serving Christ 1 years ago... I'm really excited to get to know soms other like-minded people!

~By His Grace,
Halee

[Timothy]

Halee!

I was going to ask the same question. . . :)

Hallo und Wilkommen! ~ Hello and welcome!

I made commitment to God but not really until I was twenty, and have been growing ever since then. . . Less like my former self, but more and more like Whom I read about and trust my heart to. . .the Messiah, Jesus! ( My testimony is too lengthy, and it would be in the wrong place, to include. )

Blessings and Shalom to thee,
~Timothy

[Ruth]

Welcome Halee! To answer your question the Bible Buddy read is where everyone who is interested reads a book of the Bible together a chapter a day.

[Timothy]

Thank thee for explaining this, Ruth!
Shalom,
~Timothy

[Timothy]

Blessings to thee!

Oh and yes Ruth Elizabeth explained quite correctly(: The Bible Buddy reads is where all the group members are welcome to come and read a chapter of the selected Bible book a day and where we can put our comments and questions so we all can enlighten each other and have some fun with it(: We will be starting a new one starting Wednesday and there is a couple polls open so we can decide what we want to read. I'd love it if y'all would want to be a part(:
Hope yall all are doing well (:
