i was born a christian and i beleive that since i was born one i should be like one if not i would even be fit to call me self a christian and when things go wrong for me i can just pray to him and he would guide me on the right path... why i joined eXcess... well i would say that i joined it was because i wanted to learn more about god and to be more inclined to god and to love him more than i did before

haha here's a uniquely timmy answer!
i was born a christian, but i dint accept it! but when i joined eXcess my faith grew stronger and the reason why i stayed on was because i knew i could be the person God wanted me to become through u guys!!

haha nice trick nick.
well for me it's also partly because of my upbringing, but God didn't seem that real to me only until i joined excess. i guess i felt that all the time in cjc and in ns, i could do with searching for some meaning in my life cos i was living sinfully then. so when excess was formed in 05 i joined and have stayed on ever since. i see it as a platform for me to exercise my gifts for the glory of god and to bring other people to christ or vice versa. after all jesus said that he came to call sinners and not the righteous.
but my faith already had some foundation due to my years in sji where we still had religious classes and masses and all that which i guess really helped in keeping me in his sight. then i realised in sji i was quite a peoples' person, or was turning into one, so my love for people grew. i see and understand why god loves people. here in excess, it's an excellent platform to reach out to people, and now i always recall that line that jesus calls sinners.
a bonus would be that i can work my creativity too, plus my passion in rap, djing, art and whatever.
