Are you satisfied where you are in your Christian walk? Me neither.
We have good company: Paul wasn’t satisfied either.
Paul says he forgot what was behind and pressed forward to what was ahead (Philippians 3:14). That is what we need to do also.
This website is dedicated to pressing on: finding hope ahead, forgetting past sins and victories, overcoming barriers, handling trials, learning how. And moving forward together.
My hope is that we can help each other energetically pursue Christlikeness. I hope we can challenge ourselves and each other. I hope we can learn from each other. I hope this site will become a conversation rather than a one-way talk. I don’t want to be on a soapbox; I want to be part of a dedicated group of Christians pressing on.
Let’s go!
