To Talk to God

Today’s post is somewhat hard to put into words. My final goal from Lukewarm Obedience is to Talk to God. How do you talk to someone who can’t talk back? Or can He?

Reading the Bible is HARD but Possible :)

Reading the Bible is hard. The language is difficult. Some of the books literally are nothing but numbers and names.

My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 2): Relationship with God

Yesterday, I wrote about a short story about my relationship with God growing up. It started off very oppositional and foreign, but has eventually become more natural and familial as I’ve gotten older. I’ve now gotten to a point where I want more.

Curses & Swear Words

When I was a little child, I was outstandingly pure. I was the little boy who constantly told my grandmother and other family members about their language.

My Personal Resurrection on the Sunday

Today was a weird day. I woke up hurting but happy it was Sunday. I wished Twitter a Happy Resurrection Sunday and was met with some unusual resistance. This interaction devolved into me defending why I am a Christian after the history of using Christianity to enslave and subvert my people. Why did I chooseContinueContinue reading “My Personal Resurrection on the Sunday”
