    My name is Thomas Holcombe. I live in Casselberry,FL with my wife Laura and we attend St. Andrews Chapel in Sanford,FL under the teaching of Dr. Sproul. I have been learning a great amount from a whole heap of you folks and hope to continue with less silence from me. In Christ, Thomas Holcombe

    Welcome brother! I too read posts on PB for approximately 3 months before I worked up the courage to join and show myself. I very much enjoy Dr. Sproul and his book, Chosen by God was very helpful when I began my journey into the reformed faith.
