50’s male looking for information

I agree 8 years flies by at double, sometime triple time.
I found God/ rather He found me, in 1994, but I was a sleepy Sunday-morning Christian for two decades, until about 2014/ age 61. Then I switched jobs and suddenly had a lotta free time for Bible-Study. Shortly after that, I joined up here, and found a few like-minded fellas. And simultaneously found a few in my neighborhood. Thus was born a new chapter in my life, with all kinds of crazy things going on.
If you or anyone, responds to God's call, your life will never be boring.
If you don't get the call, life will be what you make of it.
If you want to get the call, go find a Believer; we don't hide. Being a Believer doesn't make us perfect; it just means we're working on being the best that we can be.
