The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.

New Christians is a blog and informational website dedicated to sharing an abundance of resources for new believers in Christ, with the goal of assisting them in gaining their footing and quickly equipping them with the tools they need to establish deep roots and walk in the Spirit.
New Christians also features the writings, videos, and other creative endeavors of its me, (Derrick Rhayn) the founder of this enterprise. I myself am a relatively new believer, and am familiar with the struggles, insights, and needs of new believers. I began my walk with the Lord in December 2018 at the ripe age of 40, after encountering the Lord in a dream.
Before meeting the Lord, I was involved in the new age movement for more than 10 years, and basically dappled in every occult thing I could get my hands on, trying vainly to be "healed." Instead of finding the elusive healing (darn deception!) I experienced tremendous spiritual oppression and attacks from the enemy before trying to end my life in March 2015. By the grace of God, I did not die, but for the next three years thought that I was dead, and believed so until meeting the Lord more than three years later. (For my full testimony, please check out my appearance on the Transformation Podcast.)
Today, I'm an author and missionary living in Paris, France, helping to make disciples of all nations, and following the Lord's promptings. Since becoming a full time missionary in October 2019, I've been fortunate enough to share the gospel in Mexico, North Macedonia, The Netherlands, France, Croatia, Albania, Switzerland, Spain, and Portugal.
Thanks for visiting New Christians. I hope you will visit again and share this resource with those who are seeking as well as new believers in your life. May the Lord bless you bountifully.

2 Corinthians (NKJV)
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. |
