Part of my personal wrestling these past years had been around the topic of church and state. I grew up despising the field of politics, as I often saw it being used for oppressive means and personal gain. Yet here I am today, running for a seat at the Parliament.

through the eyes of Calvary Love: on the subject of discernment

One of my favorite things of journeying as a Christian is to converse with others on how the Lord is so involved in all of our lives.

I pray that this letter may only bring us to deeper communion with our Lord who revealed His will through Calvary Love.
