We are at War
The wind is blowing. A huge wave has just broken over me and my kayak, dumping me into the deep, cold waters of the ocean.

Christianity vs. Religiousness!
Question asked:
"… but how can I be a Christian without being religious?"
Fritz Ridenour (Youth editor, "Gospel Light", 1971 in his book: "Hoe om 'n Christen te wees en nie net Godsdienstig nie") said that Christianity is far more than religiousness, because it exists in the fact that God came down to man. It is not about man...
