Hi everyone! I'm Brooktree
I'm glad to have found a Board that espouses Reformed Faith as a basic position of belief since the whole counsel of God is paramount to me.
I don't know my way around the Board yet, but I'll work on it. I'm a bit nervous about Posting in the wrong Forum, so I hope you'll be patient with my learning process.
I've been a born-again Christian for over 35 years. I belong to a Presbyterian Church that is Reformed. I have many questions I'd like to explore on this Board.
Thank you for the welcome.

to the PB! When Dennis said the animals don't bite too hard, he was probably thinking of old codgers like me who're old enough to have no teeth.
