About Me



My name is Damien Leviathan Merlin Barber... yeah I am for real! I also go by McBerBerr. I am 24 years old and a graduate of the V.P. Black School of Biblical studies at Faulkner University. I have a BA in Biblical Studies and am pursuing a Master's degree in Bible at Faulkner. I work as Campus Security at Faulkner. I love to study God's word, sing praises to God with other Christians, and to fellowship with God's people. And I am always trying to meet more Christians. I just got MARRIED to a wonderful Christian girl, Valerie Nicole Barber on July 28th, 2007 at the Rockledge church of Christ!

You Are Sunrise
You enjoy living a slow, fulfilling life. You enjoy living every moment, no matter how ordinary.
You are a person of reflection and meditation. You start and end every day by looking inward.
Caring and giving, you enjoy making people happy. You're often cooking for friends or buying them gifts.
All in all, you know how to love life for what it is - not for how it should be. What Time Of Day Are You?

My Interests

In addition to praising God, I love: volleyball, baseball, paintball, ultimate frisbee, bowling, playing the keyboard, watching movies, playing video games, and hanging out w/ friends

I also enjoy learning other languages; I can currently muddle through: French, Koine Greek, & American Sign Language.

I'd like to meet:


Your Inner Child Is Happy
You see life as simple, and simple is a very good thing.
You're cheerful and upbeat, taking everything as it comes.
And you decide not to worry, even when things look bad.
You figure there's just so many great things to look forward to. How Is Your Inner Child?
I LOVE TO SEE THESE, so LEAVE ME SOME LOVE

In short, I like all kinds of movies!!!

Television:

I love sitcoms, especially the old school sitcoms, such as: Saved By the Bell, Fresh Prince of BelAire, Home Improvement, Full House, Family Matters, and Boy Meets World. The old school cartoons are also really good: like Animaniacs and Tiny Toon Adventures. I also enjoy 7th Heaven, all of the Star Treks (except DS9), Whose Line Is It Anyway, Dog the Bounty Hunter, King of Queens, and Smallville.

I don't get to watch much TV anymore, but these are the types of shows I look for when I watch TV.

Books:

What's cooler than any other book ever made... The Bible © Jedidiah Alford.. © Dan Smith

Some other good books include: Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, Case For Christ by Lee Strobel, Amazing Grace by Charles Hodge, Watership Down, Moby Dick, Treasure Island, and To Kill a Mockingbird.

Heroes:

1.) JESUS
(goes without saying)

2.) My old roomate: BEN LAZO
(he was a great Christian example)

3.) DON MYERS
(Professor at Faulkner and quite possibly the nicest guy in the world as well as one of the humblest)

4.) STEVE "STING" BORDEN
(a wrestler who became a Christian and tried to convert his fellow wrestlers, and always stuck to his morals while being a pro-wrestler).
