When we live carefully and consciously and caringly, our lives and our relationships grow rich and broad and deep.

God loves extravagantly!

It’s all about how we live and behave in relationship to each other.

What church leaders currently, historically, and typically don’t do much of is to equip God’s people to do his work!

Paul said they were all called to travel on the same road and in the same direction.

I’ve got so far to go and so much to learn!

By his Grace I’m learning that God loves me just as I am, not just as I ought to be, because I’ll never be just as I ought to be!

I’m thankful that outsiders and insiders stand on the same ground before God. I’m thankful that The Message of Hope is accessible and welcoming to everyone.

When did we become “Excluders” instead of “Includers?”

On top of everything else, I even get to join God in the work he is doing!
