Just where are you coming from?

Has anybody ever ask you that question. Just where are you coming from man? I actually feel very hesitant to spew out all of my discoveries and views of church to all of you because many of you don't know where I am coming from. That's why I have decided to let you know first where I have been so that you can see how I arrived at where I am today. I encourage you to read the posts in "My Story". I have a menu bar on the right side of the cover page that will take you there. I encourage you to start from the beginning and stay with me.

The story has a powerful and significant beginning because it was faith found outside the walls of traditional church. You will see the beauty of what I experienced in the Lord in those early years. I came to the Lord as a young man with absolutely no experience with church life in America. God in all His mercy came to me in my hour of need and rescued me. The story is unique because I grew up without any real understanding of Christianity and then experienced a powerful encounter with the Lord. I was involved with many others in leading scores of young people to Christ. I saw miraculous conversions and powerful moves of the Holy Spirit.

I later tried to merge my new life in Christ into the system of traditional church. I thought that I could learn something from brothers and sisters who traveled a different way. The results of that experience is what has caused me to think so deeply on this matter of church. I have journeyed for 35 years and so I have enough history now to draw some of my own conclusions.
Please stay with me. Check in when possible and follow along with the posts in "My Story". It's my hope that you will enjoy the story and benefit from my journey.

I pray that all who read this would be touched by His Spirit and that I remain transparent and truthful to His Glory and Honor.
