Hey, it's basically self-explanatory. Here's my story:
I was 7 years old and none of the people in my family were Christian, one day i looked out my window and saw people all dressed up walking down the street (there was a little church down the street)..i asked my mom why and she said they were going to church, and she told me about it (she had been raised in church, but she never really had a relationship with God so she stopped going after she got older) so i got really interested and the next Sunday i went in all by myself because no one else in my family wanted to go, well, i loved it, so i started going every Sunday, and about 5 months later i got saved up at the altar.

well, God had plans that couldn't wait..for example, after i was saved, my whole family starting coming to church with me, and now they're all saved (well, my dad fell away from Christ, he needs prayer) but my brother, sister, and my mom are all saved now. And 3 of my friends that i had started going to church after i told them about how awesome it was. Now i'm still in touch with them, and they are radical Christians..just goes to show you God really can use anyone.

I will be praying for your dad as well. My story is pretty simple. When I was in first grade (I went to a Christian school btw) my teacher was telling us about how Jesus died for us and how we could be saved. Right on the spot, I prayed and accepted Jesus and was saved! 4laugh I go to public school now, so it can be quite a struggle with all the teasing and bad influences. Luckily, my whole family has a strong faith, so I always have them and God to look to for help!

When I was little we lived down the street from this little church and When my Grandma died, my Daddy made a promise to her that we would start going to church, so we did. I don't exactly remember one moment when I knew I was saved...it was kinda a gradual thing.yo.

Well when I was young all of my friends went to church and at first I just wanted to go so I could be like them but as time progressed something other my friends was pulling me towards church. In fact it was actually because of me that my family began going to church. I didn't get saved until I found the correct church which I am currently at. Anyways... I'd say I was saved when I was 11. Of coarse I was scared to do it at first but after seeing my mom saved I was. Then my sister followed after. That's 5 years now and I'm still going strong. <3

I welcomed christ into my heart when I was 4 years old.
I remember getting up early every morning to watch the "tv preachers" they came on before Bozo the clown. I watched them faithfully, until I learned about Church, a place I could go to worship God.
In my heart I was saved at 4, but I was baptized at 8.

Like Gwyn, I've always known that Jesus is my savior. I don't have an exact age, I just know I was young when I thought to myself. "I love Jesus and he is my savior".

I can't really say that there was somekind of magical moment when I realized that I had been saved. Well, I belong to evangelical lutheran church so I have had child baptism (sorry, I don't know the right english words so some may be wrong >.<" )
My whole family is christian so I have always been christian. So for me, being christian, believing God etc. is big part of my life. I'm lucky, since I halso have many friends who are christians biggrin

The Kaptain I'm still waiting to be 'saved' Well, I'd say that's a good thing. It's one intelligent thing you've said in this guild... Hopefully God will spark something in you smile
