The title of my first ever “blog” which I began back in 1997, was titled, “Living 4 Christ.” I designed the graphic to the left to reflect my mission (back then numbers in the URL of a website made you really cool). Sadly, all my thoughts were lost to the known world when my computer died and I had no backups..
There are times in every Christians life when things just seem to make sense and there is a certain celerity of mind and spirit. This page is a collections of those thoughts and ideas which have taken on importance in my life and reflect the way in which I view certain subjects. I place them here for the entire Body in hopes that they may be of some benefit to you in your daily life. For pastors or teacher, they may inspire a sermon or lesson, for others my hope is that you will find some help in resolving some personal dilemma or nagging question.Most of these articles have arisen out of some personal crisis or confrontation. As such they are thoughts and ideas which have had meaning or impact in my own spiritual life. Please keep two things in mind as you read: 1) The articles are self critical in nature. That is, the articles challenge me in my own daily life to keep a balance and not stray into unsafe theological waters. I place them here not to criticize any one person or group, but rather in hopes that they may be constructive for you to read. 2) The articles are not pastoral in nature. I have phrased these articles with a very broad audience in mind and not a specific individual. If I were talking with someone on a personal level, I would be more sensitive to that individual than is possible in such a public format.
With these two things in mind, I ask your indulgence as I am also a Christian in progress and there may be things which I write that for some reason or other may wrongly offend. My ultimate goal is to convey the truth of God’s plan for our lives in a meaningful and compassionate way. If I have failed, please notify me via e-mail so that I can hone the crafting of my articles so that I may give no man any cause for offense.
Read on with God’s grace and I pray that He may bring His blessings into your life through my simple words.
From now until the end of December, I will be reposting many of my old thoughts and using this as an opportunity to sabbath from live blogging (and work on my Doctoral studies). I will be around for discussions, but for the most part the next month or so will be about a trip into my past.
