I pastor a small church in rural NC, USA, and I took guitar lessons briefly in high school before an obsession with basketball fizzled it out.
I took if up again in my 30s both as a way of bettering myself and also to help our church’s music program out. The lessons on the site have really helped me organize and structure my learning process, in Grade 2 right now and really enjoying it.
Welcome, Zach, great to meet you here.
Hello Zach and welcome to the community. 
Are you still obsessed with basketball or have the guitar now taken over?
Hello Pastor Hicks, welcome
Basketball is also a worthy obsession 
Hi Zach,
Welcome, and guitar/music is a nice way to make people leave your church even happier…(I only mean the good with these words of course)… 
I wish you a lot of fun and a super learning time,
Greetings,Rogier
Good to meet you Zach and glad to hear the enjoyment you’re taking!
I’m in Carolina Shores…Welcome Aboard. Justin is a good teacher.
I still play some but at this point my back and knees are only going to tolerate but so much of that.
Welcome to JustinGuitar and this great community Zach. Following the grades, step-by-step, that’s the way to make solid progress. You’ll have them singing and rocking in the aisles in no time!
