Greetings from a lover of God and a fellow-labourer in the fields and kingdom of our Lord! 

Who is the intended audience of this site?

• wounded Christians
• lovers of God and His words
• those who want to live their faith authentically on a daily basis
• those who want to remain in the liberty of Christ rather than to again be bound by the traditions of men

It must be acknowledged that there is a reason why this site exists.  Consider the following Jewish anecdote:

There was a rabbi who was walking to town one day when he noticed a path cutting through a nearby field.  As it would cut many minutes off the length of his journey, the rabbi detoured onto the path where it intersected the public road.  As he was walking, a young girl whose father owned the field looked up from her work among the vegetables and said to the rabbi, "Rabbi, shouldn't you ask permission before walking through someone's field?"  The rabbi paused and carefully observed the pathway for a moment before turning to the young girl to reply.  "This pathway is wide and obviously well-traveled, my dear," the rabbi stated graciously, "and therefore is obviously accustomed to such travel."  "Yes," replied the young girl, "robbers such as you have made it so." 

There are always robbers disguised by nice smiles and wearing religous robes who desire to pervert our worship for their own means, church, ministry, or desire. They travel carelessly through the field of our faith, trampling the tender seedlings of our service underfoot, defiling the holy ground upon which we sow the precious seeds of our worship. While typically cultivating a 'spiritual' demeanor, ultimately, these are disrespectful (and unprofitable) servants who sow destruction into the fields set aside to bear fruit for the Master.  Because there are so many of them, they feel justified by their number and popularity, heaping to themselves others like them who are more interested in getting what they want at any cost than they are in serving God.  They are like children with authority who, having lost their innocence, are adept at ruling unjustly in order to perpetuate their position and satisfy their cause (self)--wounding many in the process--in the name of God.

You are not alone.  There is a place for you.  This site is here to help you understand the scriptural basis for your continued journey with God. Of course, man is fallible: and God is infallible. If there is error anywhere within this site, it is man's doing, and wherever there is truth, it is to God's glory.  God alone knows the way. Wisdom suggests that in all things, we follow Him, cleaving to the good and rejecting the rest (Acts 17:11; 1 Thessalonians 5:21).

Peace,

Brother, Mark
