MY PHILOSOPHY
Peace and Joy are real, available and sustainable realities. Christianity is not a set of rules, do's and do not's, or should have's. It's a life giving and intimate relationship where your true purpose and passions can be found. While living loved you will discover a desire to be holy and righteous and not because it's required but because you find that you are invited into it. If you are trying to live up to the life and work of Christ without first knowing this intimate exchange then STOP NOW before it is too late. Learn to live from love instead of for love. Only living from knowing who you are and who you are in Christ is sustainable. All other approaches to life are fruitless and unsustainable. This truth applies to you as a parent, a spouse, a child, a leader, a minister, to everything.
