Hi everyone,
My name is Mark and I am a new Christian. By new I mean really new. I have always lived with the idea that there was a God and Jesus was his son but I did not have a relationship with him. When I was a child I had a relationship with my parents' faith. I thought that since I was a preacher's kid that I was automatically given grace. I also thought that this gave me license to be a bad ass because you know what they say about preacher's kids. I was your stereotypical PK and when I left home to join the Army I totally left God and Jesus behind. It wasn't until I turned 40 and almost destroyed everything and everyone that I love that I finally admitted to myself that Jesus is my Lord and that without him I am diminished.
So I thought I would use this space to talk about my faith, my journey, and my struggles. I will be starting a new thing at church called Starting Point this coming Sunday and I will be sharing my thoughts and feelings about it here.
So this is how it begins. Let's see where it goes :)
