Christians, what is it like to have a personal relationship with Jesus?

July 15, 2016 at 12:00 pm (This post was last modified: July 15, 2016 at 12:01 pm by LadyForCamus.)

Four pages and some genuine, thoughtful answers from our resident Christians (which I appreciate), but I've yet to see an example of how Jesus/the Holy Spirit acts as a recognizably engaged participant in this supposed relationship. Mostly, relationships require two people. Otherwise, you're just talking to yourself.

Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
