- Oh, that would be my whole life- and 34 years is not going to fit in this textbox :P
- Other stuff about me:
- Episcopalian.
I've been married for 10 years, I have an 8 year old little boy (check out my pictures). Church for me is not only keeping a commandment, but an enjoyment, hobby, and way of life.
I completed the Ames Bible College (now known as Ames International School Of Ministry) in March 2005, currently in the 4 year Theological Education program 'Education for Ministry' by extension from The University of The South, Sewanee Tennesee, AND the Episocpal Diaconate Seminary 'School For Ministry' in New Orleans. The Bible is my passion. My favorite Christian writers are C.S. Lewis, N.T. Wright, and Max Lucado.

I will be getting my forum 'God Avenue' off the ground shortly. I believe I am a devout Christian, but my 'brand' of Christianity would not be considered conservative. My beliefs are deeply rooted in:
Judge not, lest ye be judged. Matthew 7:1
Why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, yet do not notice the log in your own? Matthew 7:3
Love thy neighbor as thyself. Matthew 22:38
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. John 8:2-11
It's very hard for me to understand why some people keep pointing out all the reasons why it's okay not to follow those above verses. Mere humans don't even come close to trumping Jesus. and Jesus himself didn't come here to condemn:
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn (judge) the world, but to save the world through Him. John 3:17
*****
I believe everyone should be allowed to worship. Christianity should be inclusive, not exclusive. Let's walk the walk. Let's not forget the Beatitudes :) Let's not forget Jesus' example.

Just checking in to say hello, and God Bless you my friend! How is your week going and what has God done for you lately?
How is school going? I am still soo amazed at your knowledge and love for God. God really had to scrape me off the pavement to get me to come to him in 2002 and I have been a changed woman since. Im still learning about Him and growing in Him as each season of my life comes and goes. Im 35 years old, and like you mentioned, there just isnt enough room on this page to explain 34 years of life and what we have been through.
I encourage you to come check out the womens group and chat with us, get to know one another, and encourage eachother in the Word. Hope to see you again soon.
God Bless, Paige
Another hello from a friend here in this growing community. I second Paige's comment on your creativity. You two should have a lot to share. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. That desire to help clarify and guide others is what makes this community special. Glad to have you here.

I was looking over your education history in detail and all I can say is PRAISE GOD!!! He has got some great plans for you. He wants to greatly use you for His kingdomand He has given you the will and strength to do it!!! I am amazed at you. But you will have to explain to me what Episcopal Diaconate is. Im sorry, I dont know what that is exactly. I wouldve liked to be in the Theology part of it. I like CS Lewis too. He was a very devout,wise follower and theologin. I like Max Lucados books, and he has put out alot of childrens videos which is good for my 3 year old.
I ALSO STAND ON THE SCRIPTURES YOU LISTED ABOVE!! I have to remember those daily. There are alot judging and legalism in churches today. I wish they would remember those scriptures too.
