I write this blog in the hopes that all who read its articles will develop a deeper understanding of God and how to live life in faith and in the Spirit, day by day, moment by moment. My name is Joshua Parks and although I was raised as a Christian I left the faith when I was 14. After 5 years of living as an atheist, operating under my own strength and understanding (and failing at it), I returned to Christ after I had an encounter with Him and the supernatural. I have been teaching within the church for about nine years now. And while I don’t claim to be an expert on anything, I do have an overwhelming desire to both explore the Truth of God for myself as well as being a blessing to others by teaching them what I know.
