I am a Christ-follower, someone who loves God with all his heart, mind, soul, and strength. I try to love others with an equal passion. I am compelled to minister to those in our society who do not have a voice due to their life circumstances. I am prepared to tell others of the hope that I have if I am asked. Finally, as I am out doing life, I come along side others to help them become more like Christ, to live transformed life through the power of the Holy Spirit and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Am I a liberal or conservative (political labels), Evangelical or Main Line or Religious Right (religious labels), Baptist, CMA, Lutheran (denominational labels)? I don't think that I wan to have an adjective added to a description of who I am in Christ, rather I simply want to be describe as on who follows the teachings of Jesus and live a life that brings glory and honor to God.
