About Me

My photo
Julie
I am a Christian, sought after by God for His sake, kindly led to repentance, and forgiven of my sins by Christ's work on the cross. I also love people with disabilities, especially those with developmental disabilities. I love the Church, and I wish to see her preach the Gospel to those with disabilities so that they may also be given faith and repentance, be forgiven of their sins, and shown their place at the table of God. (Luke 14:1-24)

Luke 14:21b

...'Hurry into the streets and narrow roads of the city and bring poor people here. Bring those whose bodies are diseased. Bring those who cannot walk and those who are blind.'

Developmental Disability

The term “developmental disability” involves a mental or physical disability which arises before adulthood and usually lasts throughout life. Such examples include, but are not limited to: autism, Down syndrome, Asperger’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, and epilepsy. Many states use different definitions for developmental disabilities based on the federal law.

Is There Healing in Atonement?

Dr. Sam Storms of Enjoying God Ministries and pastor of Bridgeway Church in Oklahoma City, OK addresses wisely this question in his essay, "Is There Healing in Atonement?"

Favorite Quotes

"To be ignorant and simple now- not to be able to meet the enemies on their own ground- would be to throw down our wepons, and to betray our uneducated brethren who have, undr God, no defense but us against the intellectual attacks of the heathen. GOOD PHILOSOPHY MUST EXIST, IF FOR ONO OTHER REASON, BECAUSE BAD PHILOSOPHY NEEDS TO BE ANSWERED." -C.S. Lewis

"When life is rosy, we may slide by without knowing about Jesus, with imitating him and quoting him and speaking of him. But only in suffering will we know Jesus." -Joni Eareckson Tada

"There is no pit so deep but Christ is deeper still." -Corrie Ten Boom

"When sin is your burden, Christ will be your delight." -Thomas Watson

"Although my memory is fading, I remember two things very clearly: I'm a great sinner and Christ is a great savior."-John Newton (from the movie Amazing Grace)

"Until a person experiences suffering, he cannot know what it is to hope." -Martin Luther
