Just because I'm a Christian it does not mean I am superior to you, that I make better choices than you or that because of my faith I am wholly without sin and perfect.
I am just as screwed up as the rest of you.
In the following weeks you are going to find out a lot more about me than you want to know. To you Christians, I say this: I am not a stumbling block. I am meant for ministry despite my faults and my failures. My faults and my failures make my witness true and real- a connection point between me and other people who are going through the same thing. I refuse to keep up the appearance like I have it all together because honestly, I don't. And neither do you- you sin too.
To those not claiming to be of the Christian faith or to those doubting: I am going to be sharing a lot of me with you because I want you to know me for who I am not by the title given to me by my faith. I know titles can be intimidating and imply stereotypes. I want to knock those down and obliterate them as much as I possibly can. My faith is a part of who I am but just because I have it does not mean I'm perfect... I only hope you can know and see that.
Ye have been warned. Wow, that sounds intimidating!
