Welcome to Church Simplified
A simplified approach to being the church discovering a close personal relationship with the godhead
The Death, The Burial, and The Resurrection
The resurrection sets in motion very important kingdom affairs, because it releases God the Holy Spirit as the active agent of the godhead on the earth. The resurrection had to take place.
The birds preached me a sermon
The Message Bible describes it something like this. “The field preached me a sermon, and I listened.” I thought, “These birds are preaching me a sermon. I better listen.”
He went over everything
This should offer some encouragement. You might be in the “awkward few minutes” part of a close personal relationship, but you are in a relationship. If that is the case, be encouraged for what lies ahead.

Lockdown
The closer you get to the godhead, the more attuned you become to his direction for your life. God has a plan and a purpose for your life. The plan includes both the temporal as well as the eternal.

At first, I thought I needed to completely rewrite the manuscript to reflect those views. I have since come to understand that my journey might be the discovery—perhaps even rediscovery—that someone else might need in order to begin his or her own journey.
