Best decision you'll ever make.  ( I sent you a personal e-mail).

That's wonderful!  If you haven't already, try to get involved in a good, nurturing church -- one where you'll be supported in your walk with Christ.  Nothing is more beneficial to a new believer than the nurturing support of fellow Christians.  Feel free to send me an email if you ever have any specific questions.

For there'll be no parting there.  ~Billy Bennett

Congrats! It's the best decision you'll ever make!!
Life has three aspects: Paradox, Humor, and Change.

Paradox: Life is a mystery; don't waste time figuring it out.
Humor: Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure
Change: Know that nothing stays the same.

As far as advice goes, get plugged into a good church and maybe a small group as well! Both will be able to support you and help you on your new journey.

Congratulations.   As has already been said, find a good bible based church and you will open your life to a whole world of Christian friendship.  Also check out the site that Marsh has for sly chrisitians.

I echo what everyone has said so far.

The moment it happened it will never leave you because Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has not and will not ever leave you.  

It is the ultimate foundation for you to build upon, and if you haven't already noticed...you will wonder how could anyone live with out Faith in Him?

May God continue to Bless you...continue to put Him first in your life and He will...

(And if you haven't been Baptized...NOW is the time!  And after that I would encourage you to learn the requirements for Communion from the church of your choice.)

Thanks, guys, for supporting BaldManDan with some good answers!  I'm sure a bunch of you have sent him personal messages as well.

Congratulations baldmandan!
My advice to you would be to pay close attention to the leaders of the church you decide to attend. These men are very valuable assets in your new life with Christ. You are now just learning to crawl in your new life as a Christian. As times goes by you'll learn to walk in your new life as a Christian. Be patient. You will fall down at times...do not be discouraged. Pray everyday for guidance and be thankful for everything you have and accomplish.

Thank you again so much guys! you must hear this a ton from new Christians, but I have been riding on a cloud since I gave my life to God, and he has already answered so many of my prayers for guidence and for strength. Does anyone have a favorite lesson/book to share? I'm so hungry for the word of the Lord, but lack the tools yet to fully understand the meaning. I am meeting with the pastor at my new church on Wednesday and I can't wait!

Actually, feel free to contact me here.  Christian Chromedomes is kind of dormant right now.  I am having some Yahoo problem right now, so I can't access it right now!

Dan, you're headed in the right direction.  The fellows in my office and the couples in our Tuesday evening small group are praying for your growth.
