Why Compassionate and Gracious?

I love to contemplate the nature of God. Because the more I know and understand who God is, the more I love and trust Him. Compassionate and Gracious is a phrase that God frequently uses to describe Himself, and I have found it to be true.

I love to read and study the Bible. Through its pages, God speaks. He shows me who He is. He helps me to understand myself. And He provides wisdom and guidance for life.

I also love to learn about archaeological and scientific evidences that support the historical reliability of the Bible. Because the more I am assured that the Bible is trustworthy and speaks with authority, the more I know I can trust the God whose Word it is.

If your heart, like mine, is drawn to the heart of God, I invite you to journey with me. Together we can explore faith and the unfathomable riches of God’s nature.

Psychologists tell us that the need to feel loved is a primary human emotional need. It is no wonder that God’s primary commandments to mankind are to love God and to love one another (Matt. 22:34-40). [...]
