My passion
Over the past few years, I have had the privilege of engaging with a diverse group of church-goers, both regular attendees and committed members. However, I have noticed with some concern that there is a lack of familiarity among many individuals with the basic concepts and terminologies of Christianity.
It is disheartening to encounter situations where I ask someone if they are born again, only to receive responses such as “I am baptized,” “I am in the choir,” or “I am the president of the youth fellowship in my church,”. Some even express confusion or admit that they do not know what it truly means to be born again. And before you were formed in your mother’s womb you have been going to church? Honestly, I admire the sincerity of this last group of people but I believe we can do better. This realization has motivated me to take action.
Therefore, I have decided to embark on a series of teachings aimed at building a strong foundation for new converts and young Christians, enabling them to develop a deeper and more meaningful relationship with God. These teachings will cover topics such as the significance of salvation, the transformative experience of being born again, and achieving victory over sin, amongst others.
It is important to note that my intention is not to condemn or blame anyone, including the church to which I belong. Rather, I hope to positively impact the lives of individuals, guiding them towards a more fulfilling spiritual journey. I want to emphasize that I am not an expert theologian, nor do I claim to possess comprehensive knowledge of the entire Bible. However, I am eager to share the insights I have gained and continue to grow alongside others in our faith.
I invite you to join me on this exciting journey of discovery and growth. May the mercies of God be abundant in our lives. Happy New Year!
