Core Values

I am currently working on Core values - things that will define how I forge ahead in my life journey with the Father.   This is the list so far, and it will be updated as I learn and grow.

I refuse to believe something just because I have always believed it.

I will always treat the Children of God like Gold, something that has intrinsic value by creation in need of only refinement- not Brass, something that needs to be constructed by man's efforts and has value only once its finished

I will endeavor to see the lost for their original destiny from the foundation of the earth that God intended for them and not be moved at their current appearance.

I will never allow a desire for cultural change allow me to treat with dishonor a person on the other side of a cultural argument.

I will approach disagreements with the intent to listen, not win.

I will live in Joy. At every moment of life there is something to be joyous about.  Jesus has not only died for me, he ever-lives for me.  I cannot say I have this as the center of my focus and live in depression

There is SOMETHING to be learned from every person I will ever meet

I use broad brush strokes to speak blessing, fine brush strokes for correction/disagreement

I refuse to let The Gospel become a subplot in a political culture war

I believe in the Bible. I believe in the Supernatural.  Everything biblical is Godly. Not everything that is supernatural is God.

My determined purpose is to know him.
