What were you expecting or looking for at AFF?
 

After reading a post in another thread I was amazed how the poster came with one agenda and found another.

For me I go back to the first original forum. To be honest it has been my favorite because it was what I was looking for; Bible study interaction. The newer forums don't offer the dept of discussion we had there. One reason is most of those posters have left to go to a ministers only forum.

Second the same subject keep coming up and some of the older posters just are tired of discussing the same subjects, here I need to remind US, me included to be more patient and let them ask their questions.

Third reason I have found and appreciate is updates of what is happening around the different churches. I have found pastors today tend to keep everything to them selves.

Discussion on conferences I am not able to attend. It's a good way to keep updated.

I have met some really nice people here and truly miss a lot of my favorites that have left.

I love and have learned politics from PO and Deacon Blues.

The food section used to more lively than it is now. But everything ebbs and flows.

I dont have as much time as I used to here but still enjoy interacting with cyber friends. :)

I found this forum in 2010, and it has been a blessing in many ways for me too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us Esther :)

I think she'd be mortified to know that was what got typed! Poor Esther! Someone fix it for her!

AFF has been what I expected. Friends and fellowship. :) Although I would say for a period of time there, when things were really rough for me, it was hard here too because I was changing so much. People didn't know who I was.

I was expecting it to be totally different than it actually was.
Expecting to find discussion on scripture. Imagine my surprise to find a bunch of crazy people (not naming names), and I fit right in!! :happydance

So true. :highfive It seems many come here with a set of beliefs, and then as you are challenged by other opinions and thoughts, it helps to form and solidify what you really believe in.

In a world mostly filled with people that have no earthly idea about the Oneness doctrine, I find comfort in discussing subjects with folks who have a similar Oneness background as me. We share a unique world and religious view.
