AFF, along with NFCF, & FCF has been beneficial in challenging me to a more focused prayer life, given me reaffirmation that, despite what others think or feel...God has called me to be a counselor, and last but not least it has challenged me to search myself and find out what I really believe.

What I really believe is not very far from what I have always believed spiritually, and scripturally.

I thank God for the friends I have made, and the enemies I didn't know I had...but that's alright...most of you have no effect whatsoever on my life. Those that do...well...that is just the way it is and I can work with it or around it.

Blessings, Rhoni

The first thing I usually do when I come on here is to see what the new things are that need prayer today or how things we've been praying about are coming along. Then I spend some time praying for those issues.

In the area of Bible Study - you all have sent me searching the Scriptures many times. I don't always agree with you. And sometimes I do agree. But I love that you can stir up a question, and then I can move right on over to BlueLetterBible.com and search for an answer.

So what kind of impact has AFF had on your life??
Lots to think about and comment on, Margie. I don't think I have the words together today.

I have also met a dozen or so who post here, and that is always proves to be great experience. Several of those I have met have gone from on-line accquaintence to friends.

PS My darling wife and I are traveling to Hartford CT next week for business. If anyoneone is in this vincinity we would love to meet.

I had never visited or posted on any online forum until NFCF. My first post was in October of last year. The same posters are here for the most part. I don't know if I would say my life has been changed. But I can definitely say I have learned a lot, and made a few really good friends.

Randy Graham, Dan Weaver and John Carroll are very fine men of God, and I have enjoyed conversing with them immensely. I like the banter of AFF and sometimes miss the heat of NFCF, but not the vitriol.

All in all its been fun.

What has AFF done for me? Interesting question. I have become accquainted with some good folks, and I have been challenged to dig deeper into the Word, and to work harder to bring people together. I have benefitted a great deal by a word here and a word there. I don't want to call names but there are some fine folks here. I believe in giving Honor to whom honor is due, but, well, there are so many and I'd surely forget someone. So, I'll just sow a big Thanks out to those who have been a blessing and have encouraged me to walk a little closer to the Lord. And, in keeping with my Southern heritage, I'll just say, "I 'pprecirate y'all"!
