When I say I am a Christian

When I say..." I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I am saved" I'm whispering "I get lost" "That is why I chose this way" When I say..."I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone to be my guide When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong I'm professing that I'm weak and pray for strength to carry on When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success I'm admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, my flaws are all too visible but God believes I'm worth it When I say..."I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain I have my share of heartaches which is why I seek His name When I say..."I am a Christian" I do not wish to judge ...

Book Review: Beyond the Pews

In the book, Beyond the Pews, by Amy Ekwegh, you will feel compelled, convicted, motivated and remorseful. It takes the reader from a place of contentment and allows one to have a self-check on where he/she stand in the church ministry. From start to finish, I saw myself in each scenario mentioned in this book. Beyond the Pews is an easy and quick read. Once you start, you will not want to put the book down and can be read in a day. Ekwegh used biblical reference to prove the Christian's purpose goes beyond attending a church service. I do feel that there were some parts where the book became redundant. There were many mentions of “not leaning on others and having the will to go into prayer for yourself” and “having the faith to continue the Christian walk”. It would have been nice to see a chapter on Prayer and one on Faith to sum up those thoughts. For this reason, I would rate the book a 3 out of 5. No matter your position in the church, you will feel motivated to do more for th...
