I'm Isaac.  Single and ain't looking. Not that I'm opposed to getting married if I happen to meet a nice lady, but I'm not spending any time or effort hunting for her.

I like food but I hate fast food. Homemade is where it's at, or a restaurant that has something at least halfway resembling homemade.

I like chocolate but don't even try to fob me off with hershey. Currently I'm on Moser Roth. I drive 2.5 hours round trip to get my chocolate and it's worth it.

I like music.  That's the understatement of the decade. I have a large and varied music collection - all christian, but all different styles. Everything from bluegrass gospel to christian hard rock and rap. I can just about guarantee you can find something you hate in my collection, and something you will love. If you are looking for more of a certain style of christian music I can probably make some suggestions.

I make soundtracks. No, not movie soundtracks. If a song really gets me and I just have to sing it, I make a soundtrack for it so I can sing it at church without bugging the piano player to learn yet another song. Our piano players' plates are full anyway.

I like dogs and cats. I'm the guy that can go to visit someone and the dog will bug me to scratch his ears or the cat will curl up in my lap, while the people of the house are saying, "Man, he never lets strangers do that..."  I like most dogs and cats more than I like a lot of humans.

I'm slightly individualistic. I use what works for me, whether it's popular or not. If something is important to me I will spend a lot of time looking for the kind that fits what I want best. I don't just go to Wal-Mart and get a phone, I searched until I found the world's smallest android phone. I wear shoes with a zero-drop ratio (heel isn't thicker than toe) because I like my balance and agility. I couldn't care less about form, style, what people think of me or what is popular. From food to shirts to footwear to laptops, what I get for myself is what I have found works best.  (And when people sneer at my laptop that looks like it came from 1998, I can sneer at their laptops that can't even see the wireless connections I can use.)  :cool:

Let's see, what else...

I make sourdough bread. I haven't bought a loaf of that spongy, floppy, gummy store stuff in years.


EDIT: Reading over Bobby's post reminded me to mention I'm a UPCI licensed minister. I don't do much preaching but I do about everything else.  I'm the henchman - Someone else comes up with something we want to do, I figure out how to make it happen and then I go make it happen.
"Do you sing at church?"
"Yes I sing at church, I sing at home, at work, in the car, at the supermarket, at Wal-Mart..."

I'm Becca. Single; never been married; currently too busy living to think about looking. I want to meet someone that I would find special; and desire that it be more than so many are willing to settle for!!!  It will happen when God desires; if it's His Will!

I'm currently living in TX...I moved from the northwest(The Evergreen State) to the south almost twelve years ago; and am sadly still in culture shock!! 😏 I'm not sure how to overcome!!! 😏

Food is just food...however, I refuse to eat something that isn't up to my standards!!! I just don't go around thinking about my next meal! However, I come from a family of culinary geniuses!! 😉

*note* Chocolate is not food; it is a necessity!! It is also something that mass production has destroyed; chocolate wasn't meant to be a sugary piece with no flavor...you should always be picky about where; and how your chocolate is made!!! 😉



I believe in God, His word, His power...we are here by design! I'm thankful for His Mercy, His Grace, His Love...and so much more!!!

I love nature, hiking, music, photography, art, crafting, creating, reading, etc...! The pursuit of truth, holiness...of "pressing towards the mark"!!! Sharing the truth and peace of God's mercy, grace, power, love, etc...!

I'm currently trying to figure out how to turn my photography into a full time business...people want to pay me for events, and portraits; as well, commission advertising, & designs, etc...I work full time; therefore, don't have the energy, time, or money to invest...and have yet to figure out how to make it all come together!

I would really like to use my Photography to glorify God...and am currently working on a portfolio of photography, and creative Art & Design; that not only show the beauty of His creations; as well, share the truth, joy, and peace found in His Word...and not the same five verses that seem to be the only thing people print on everything! I also, dislike the fact that they change the verses to make them more commercially desirable!!! 😔  Meh!!!

I am truly and amazingly blessed beyond measure... God has such an amazing hand upon my life; as well, the lives of my immediate family!! I wish I were more deserving! I continually pray; that I not be so caught by life; that I forget even for a moment; the reason, & the purpose He created me for! Lord, help me to be worthy, humble, merciful...help me to walk with grace; and to bring glory and honor to your name!!!!

Micah 6:8  | He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?




2 Timothy Chapter 2:15 | Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Colossians 4:6  | Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

Hebrews 13:5 | Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

1 Peter 3:4  |  But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

1 Peter 3:15  |  But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:


FYI I love quoting scripture! I'm sure that all of you completely missed that about me!!! 😉

I strive for the characteristics that would be in keeping of God's desire for an "Apostolic Lady"! However, with all my human failing's; you will find me more closely defined as a "reliable realist"...that is; if you are trying to define me from a modern prospective. 😉

If you have a nearby Aldi try the Moser Roth they carry.  If you don't have a nearby Aldi... well, Lindt is the closest that Wal-Mart carries to real chocolate, but it's not very close.

I think there is an Aldi about a little over an hour away!!! Not sure I've ever had Moser Roth before!!! Will definitely have to try it!!!!
