Read More"I had completely missed the point of the Gospel.... It wasn't about.... prosperity or blessings on earth. Instead of praising God for His finished work on the cross, I had been attempting to make use of Him to satisfy the sinful desires of my earthly life."
Read More“I regarded God as an ever-helpful therapist who would accede to my requests for good grades and a smooth life. It took a long time for the gospel to really sink in, and for me to start experiencing a heart transformation.

Jesus came to save sinners like me.”

I am able to work without that constant sense of worry and self-doubt that may otherwise plague me.

That I need not be anxious about what the future brings because there is a God who is not only sovereign but is also a loving father who will walk with me.”
