My Testimony
For a long time, I was lost. I struggled with depression, anxiety, and a lot of other issues. Some days, I could hardly stand to get out of bed. I thought that if I started going to the gym, or eating better, or if I was more social, that things would get better. For a little while, it did. Going to the gym helped me gain strength and discipline. Eating better gave me energy and made me feel better. Being more social gave me a group to look forward to seeing.
Yet, there was always something missing. A feeling that something wasn’t quite right. After a while, these things stopped having as much of an effect, and I feel back to my same old bad habits.

I’ll be honest: this all started because of my desire to have as many qualifications as possible. I was sitting at work and thought to myself “how difficult is it to become ordained?” and then I wound up with an ordination record, and no idea what that really meant. At first, it was just a talking point, but then I got to thinking: what if I could make a difference with this?
I remembered that I never really understood what it meant to be a Christian. People would talk about love, faith, and Christ’s sacrifice, but I never understood what it all really meant. I started researching it, and trying to learn what all of those things are in relation to God, and that’s what started me on my path to creating my sermons.

Now, I spend a lot of my free time researching these different fundamental aspects of what Christianity is, so that I can share that knowledge with others. I want to share it with long time Christians, with newly reborn Christians, and with those who aren’t Christian at all — really anyone who wants to hear my voice.
This is why my sermons are based more in overarching topics, and digging into the details of it all, before I move to more broad topics. I want to give others the knowledge that I didn’t start with, so that they can truly understand what it is when someone says “God loves you”
