“Loving Father   The exciting thing about the Christian life is that we, unlike other “religions,” have a living and active God who desires a relationship with us.  That’s something to be excited about!  We aren’t ruled by a dictator, but we are invited into a loving relationship with a personal, caring, and intimate Father.  One of the greatest honors we have is being called to co-labor with Him in the harvest of souls. We have a good Dad and we get to share His goodness with the people around us.  He doesn’t just send us out into the “world” helpless and on our own.  He invites us to go out with Him. He fills us with His presence and gives us gifts to bear fruit.”
