I consider myself a new Christian, I'm just curious, to find out how long people have been a Christian. Whats the problem with that? I find it very inspiring to hear how long people have been walking with the Lord and their stories are so wonderful!

Yes I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and have been since I was Five years old. The lord has been good to me, and has given me a second chance at life. I'm proud to say I'm a Christian.

I do. I was born into a Christian family (which I thank God for) and have been attending church since before I was born. At age 7 I realized that I needed Jesus as my Savior and I asked Him to be my Savior (I am almost 27now).
Jesus has done so much for me. He's provided me a wonderful set of parents who have just celebrated their 28 wedding anniversary, a wonderful husband who does so much for me, the right friends at the right times to encourage me and point me back to Him when I lost my way, and the Godliest in-laws who care for me as if I was their own daughter.
I will follow Jesus Christ past my dying day.
Praise the Lord for all you who are believers, whether for a long time or just now have become a believer. I can't wait to meet you all in Heaven.

I was born christian and studied intently from a very young age to enter the ministry. My faith was so unshakeable that my witness contributed to the conversion of many of my peers in jr high and high school. when I entered college, it was with the eye towards attaining a degree so I could go on to seminary.
Somewhere along the way though, I just stopped seeing it as true. It wasn't that anyone 'convinced me' that there was no God, it just stopped making sense to me. I had many hash-out sessions with God... would go into the church and, trusting that he understood and was my friend, frankly, I let all the anger and fear out, even screamed at him. He was human once, He had to understand, and I felt he'd want my sincere emotion, not some insincere prayer. Sometimes, I'd try the prayer even though I was stark raving angry at him.
It never helped. Never changed anything. So I just sorta stopped believing.
So to answer your question, I suppose, No. I don't. Used to though, with all my heart mind body and soul. Only now, don't believe in him or a soul any more. Now I follow the requirements of my conscience. Honesty and charity.

Since birth. My parents were Christians. When I reached 18, I made my own choice to stay following Christ.

I ask Jesus into my life to be my Savior 27 years ago, but I did not follow Him until 7 years ago.

Yes most of my life I have. There was a time when I wasn't sure of who I was or who he was. But he found me and reminded me that he is my brother, my confidante, my Friend! He is my Savior, He loves me without measure and expects me to do the same. Not only myself but all my brothers and sisters on this planet! And we are all brothers and sisters!
