My Faith Is A Relationship With God, It Is Not All About Religion. My Faith Is A Way Of Life Directed By God’s Word, The Holy Spirit, As A Result Of What Jesus Christ Did On The Cross For Me To Forgive Me Of My Sins, And Make Me Right In The Eyes Of God.

In 2007, my pastor Ron Sauer and his wife Sue saw how depressed I was due to my wife giving up on our marriage. Ron and Sue encouraged me to encourage others.
