"To the degree that you have based your life on something other than the Lord, to that degree God's love and the hope of the gospel will not comfort you."
Paul David Tripp, War of Words, p. 98.

About Me
- FellowElder
- I love the Lord because He first loved me. I love His people because He has given me a new heart. I have received God's favor in the form of my wife, Kristie. And together we know His blessing through three children. I was once a Muslim, and by God's grace I have been saved through faith in Jesus Christ. By God's unfathomable grace I am a preacher of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in which I hope to serve Him until He returns or calls me home!
