Warmest Greetings from the Valley of the Sun!
I’ve had an account for a long time, and was comfortable reading and liking posts, not so much posting. I’ve just changed my username, inspired from Matthew 25, the Groom of 5 Wise so I can post more (concerns of doxxing easily with a username I’ve used before, although the details I’m about to post would make it fairly easy to find me).
A bit about me. Currently living in the Valley of the Sun, Phoenix metro area. Raised Romanian Pentecostal (pre-Communism), very different from American Pentecostalism; a lot more similarities to Southern Baptist in some doctrine, conservatism, and legalism; just a very heavy emphasis on speaking in tongues and prophecy, and gifts of the Holy Spirit. Not to say any of those are “bad”, just different and often misguided. We have called Calvary Chapel churches as our home for a number of years, and now primarily frequent a local larhe church (although I often struggle to call it home).
I used to be a computer systems and software engineer in aerospace, and currently a full time real estate agent.
Married, 1 wife, the wife of my youth. No other partners before. We have 5 kids together, oldest is a teen. Very “tradcon” nuclear family.
Why am I here? I stumbled upon it many years ago, I think from a christianredpill sub, or something like that, and kept frequenting your forums. I have thoroughly enjoyed the content, conversations, and biblical perspectives and values most have. It definitely scratches a cerebral itch. I believe monogamy is not the only valid form of marriage, for those that can bear it. Polygyny and celibacy are valid too.
