Mission Field -

My heart is being stirred. As God continues to work in me to conform me to His will revealed in the Scriptures, I am provoked to greater zeal in service to my King. My aspirations toward holiness are constantly slowed by my sin, but I do desire to grow in faithfulness as a husband, father, churchman, and citizen. I do not have any desire to personally set out on missions to other countries or continents, but my mission field is vast and the potential impact by God's grace is broad. I lead my wife in faithfulness to God and with her help, I will raise my daughter (and hopefully more children) to be faithful to God. I seek to be faithful to my brothers and sisters in Christ through our local assembly; I seek to promote the goal of complete conformity to the Scriptures in the church. I am striving to be a more active citizen in calling Caesar to give heed to the law of the land, the Constitution, and to give heed to those Biblical principles which pertain to civil governance. May God bless His people as tools used for the building of His kingdom. May the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ be advanced through the clear witness of His disciples. It is only by His grace and for His glory that our faith is shown forth in works. Soli Deo Gloria.
