About me

I first trusted Christ at about age 8. Later, at about the age of 25, I was challenged that "If Christianity is true, it calls for a greater commitment than you've been making. And if it is not true, then you're wasting your time with it and your Sunday mornings would be better spent practicing your tennis serve." As I reflected on this I realized that, if Christianity is true, then everything I knew made sense. And if it wasn't true, then nothing made sense. And so began the life-long process of getting to know God on a personal basis.

Meditation:
   And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.    --2 Corinthians 4:3-5 (NIV)
