I'm calling this a love letter, because that's the way I hope you experience it. If you've glimpsed yourself and/or feel despair, dread or fear, there's really, really Good News. Check it out.
Is one of your resolutions to grow in your faith or go to church more in 2021? Great decision! If you don't have a church, consider visiting mine: Harborside Christian Church. You can attend from the comfort of your living room.
​
We're starting the year with a church-wide fast and a series on the heart. Here's the first message. We're also reading through the foundational Gospel of John, the basis of the Love Letter Jesus video I posted above. Consider reading through it. It can change your life if you let it.
You can subscribe by clicking on the video link and subscribing to the Harborside Channel.

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free”

Candid reflections on life, faith & society.

My Faith

I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
​
I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
​
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.
​
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets.
I believe in one holy catholic [one body Christian] and apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one baptism as an outward demonstration of faith.
​
I look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.
Statement of Faith

The Bible
I believe the Bible is the Divinely inspired, authoritative, eternal Word of God, alive and active, true in every respect, well beyond our limited capacity to understand. While some matters are clearly subject to interpretation, most are plain and essential for a submitted life and ongoing sanctification.
A Life of Faith
We are unified in our need for Christ to be reconciled to God, which should be reflected in lives of increasing sanctification involving an essential tension between abiding in Him by grace, obedience by His Holy Spirit, and ongoing surrender, confession, and repentance.
Grace is never a license to sin and ongoing, willful, unrepentant sin reveals a spiritual condition apart from Christ.
