    Talking Hello from Midlothian, VA

    Hello!

    I am Richard Elliott, husband of Lonnie for 29 years, father of Melissa (23) and Colin (20), owner of Apollo (4) and Tasha (14).



    Became a Christian in college and have attended PCA churches for over 30 years since. Especially enjoy studying church history.

    And my wife tells me I have cute knees.

    Pax,
    Richard Elliott

    How absurd a tenet is this, which holdeth that there is some particular worship of God allowed, and not commanded? What new light is this which maketh all our divines to have been in the mist, who have acknowledged no worship of God, but that which God hath commanded? Who ever heard of commanded and allowed worship?

    Thank you'all for the warm welcome.

    I must warn you, though, that I do have a quirky sense of humor. Pity my poor wife as my children have inherited it.

    Fom Scotland and her Tartans by Alexander Fulton

    The Elliots, with the Armstrongs, were the most troublesome of the great Scottish Border families in the Middle Ages, the Redheugh branch being regarded as the most influential of them.
    Yep, we would steal the Clan Scott's horses, they would hang us, all in good clean, fun.

    A grand tradition I hope to uphold

    * looks around for horses and ways of being troublesome *
