Greetings! Allow me to make this quick, since I have specifically registered under an inspiration of starting a thread regarding Ralph Martin's new book, "A Church in Crisis". I am 29 years old, had a radical encounter with the Lord at 19 years of age, and am currently a youth minister who loves singing and playing guitar. Trying to find the right balance between "extreme justice" and "extreme mercy", "will only a few be saved?" and "God wills all to be saved", "God loves me" and "God loves me too much to leave me the same"... I think you get the idea. Perhaps this is all of our struggle, our cross to bear as we live in the mystery of so great a God. If I don't see a post regarding Mr. Martin's new book, I shall make one... should it please the Lord! Haha...

Good to meet you. God bless you! I hope to use this forum somewhat regularly, but who knows. Sometimes we do things spur of the moment and then it doesn't amount to anything.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome sardO!

I very much liked the book by Ralph Martin "A Church in Crisis". I had the privilege of hearing him speak in person at a FIRE rally when I lived on Long Island. This was about 35 years ago, maybe more.
