Theology
I will be quoting and paraphrasing from various authors in this blog. The author doesn’t necessarily agree with all elements of his/her theology or life practices of selected authors. The purpose of this blog isn’t to debate theology or criticize particular denominations. I welcome all who seek truth, grace, and hope in a spiritual journey.
I frequently include quotes from the website http://www.gotquestions.org. You can read about their particular viewpoint and worldview at link below:
https://www.gotquestions.org/about.html
This author affirms the role of scripture in informing and guiding faith. Scripture is God’s guiding voice to reveal Himself.
Purpose
This site exists for the purpose of education, encouragement, and edification of others. This site is self-paid by the author and doesn’t seek to promote a single denomination nor criticize others. When referencing other beliefs or “churches” this author respects the variety of beliefs and interpretations of others. This website exists as a collection of various articles written to encourage those seeking truth, grace, and hope.
Use of Artificial Intelligence (A.I).
This author will use various forms of A.I. to generate images, summaries, and provide lists of research articles, etc. All posts are written and edited personally by author. All uses of A.I will be sourced with a link for you to personally visit. A.I. is a tool not the author of posts. I use Night Cafe Studio, Canva Pro, and other cited sources to create/source images to illustrate key concepts and break up text flow.
