Hello and Welcome!
Our family also lives in Alabama...seven miles from the Tennessee border. I saw on Google Earth that you live close to the other end of Alabama.
I don't know if you are aware of this yet, but there is a retreat coming up from December 27th - 29th in Florida. We look forward to that weekend every year. My husband and I became betrothed two years ago on December 29th. Eight months later we had a ceremony after the summer BiblicalFamilies retreat, which was on August 12th. Still, December 29th is a very special date to me. I am very thankful that we made that commitment before the Lord that day. The Lord led me to "offer him my hand to lead," and he has done a wonderful job. I am very thankful to be in this family.
I am the second wife, although I was very familiar with Biblical Plural Marriage because I was the first wife in a prior 15-year marriage that failed. I never thought I would walk back into poly though. It is a pretty unique position to have been a 1st wife and now a 2nd wife. I wouldn't trade these two years for 50 years in the previous relationship. My husband and sisterwife are amazing blessings to me.
I hope you hang out here on BibFam and get to know us all....maybe even attend a retreat? The trip is well worth it. I love all the retreats. Being able to get together with other like-minded people, and the fact that you finally get to put a face to the posts you read, is priceless.
There is a lot on this forum, old and new, and I am glad to hear that you want to dive into lots of important information before making any decision. I would say to take your time before making a covenant relationship with someone, but I would have to call my self a hipocrite if I said that because my husband and I became bethrothed after three days of meeting each other! LOL However, he, my sisterwife, and I all went to the same church/Bible college in Seattle from 1980 to 1989. It is truly a small world. It was a very large church of 3,000, but I did know who my now sisterwife was because she was forefront in music ministry. My husband, on the other hand, I only had heard of through my ex-sisterwife whose brother actually worked for my now husband! Did you get all that? LOLOL Definitely a small world!
Again, we all welcome you here at BiblicalFamilies.org! Come on in...the water is fine!!!
In Him,
Deborah

Deborah, you're making us sound like a small group of inbreds! 
Calerafam, I am from the other side of the world, and although I was related to over half my school when I was young, I am not related to Deborah that I know of! Well, no more than you're related to her anyway.
Welcome! :lol:
