ABOUT
The mission of this site is to communicate the life changing message of Jesus Christ.
This one mission can be divided into three sub-categories:
1. Unite Faith and Reason
- Today there is widespread acceptance of a supposed dichotomy between faith and reason - between God and science. How sad it is that many people, especially young people, are resistant to the Gospel because of the misconception that they must choose between God and science. Faith forms the foundation of each of our lives. Even the staunchest atheist lives by faith whether he acknowledges this fact or not. It only makes sense to carefully decide where we are going to place this faith.
2. Unite Christians
- While theological differences within Christendom should not be ignored, there is so much more that unites Christians than divides us. A house divided cannot stand. If Christians are to shine Christ's light to the world, we must unite around our common foundation: faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
3. Unite Faith and Daily Life
- According to Gallop polling, just 60 years ago 98% of Americans reported belief in God. Today that number is 81% with more than half of the decline coming in the past decade. Only 68% of 18-29 year old Americans report belief in God. Meanwhile, addiction, depression, and anxiety have become the status quo. Over 700,000 people worldwide commit suicide every year. Despite living in the wealthiest, most technologically advanced society in history, it is clear that our culture is undergoing an existential crisis of meaning.
The systematic elimination of Jesus Christ in our western culture is the fundamental cause of every problem our society faces. Many people think that in order to have a relationship with God they must live a mundane, restrictive life. This could not be further from the truth. A life with God by your side is incomprehensibly more vivid, awe-inspiring, meaningful and enjoyable life than life without God. Yes sacrifices must be made along the way, but what is received is far greater than what is given up. Any sacrifices God calls us to make are for our benefit not His. God, as pure love, wants to give us what our hearts truly desire, not just what we think we desire. Jesus offers what no other "religion" possibly can - a personal daily relationship with the Source of Life itself.
I lived the majority of my life as a lukewarm Christian - the type that went to Church occasionally and prayed when I needed something. By the grace of God, Jesus found me and opened my eyes to the truth. He redeemed me from my sins of lust, greed and pride and continues to prune and teach me daily. I have experienced life before surrendering my will to Jesus. And I have experienced life after fully surrendering my will to Jesus. There are no words capable of describing the difference. I was given a gift I could not possibly have earned, and now I want to share that gift with anyone willing to receive it.
In Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge
Col 2:2-3
