What Are We Doing Here?

The purpose of this site is to give full expression of my faith in Jesus Christ as Risen Lord and Savior.  Since I have been given the gift of faith in God and His son, Jesus the Christ I feel compelled to respond with gratitude.  All of us should seek to do good works, not in order to gain salvation, but because we have been given salvation as a free gift.

Therefore, as with all God’s children, I will seek to, as feebly, as I can, to do what I can in furtherance of God’s Kingdom.  To that end I focus on two areas of concern: peace and the monetary reform that will make it possible.

The focus on peace is critical.  All that God desires for His children is wrapped up in furthering peace and ending violence among and between humanity.  This is of primary concern.  All that we could ever hope to accomplish in God’s world depends upon nonviolence.  The command to love God and love your neighbor, as well as the New Commandment given at the Last Supper to love one another the way that God loves us puts this effort front and center.  In a world of war and under the constant threat of nuclear destruction the only battle worth waging is the battle for peace.

A key part of this battle for peace is stripping the state of the means of waging war.  This takes us directly into the realm of economics, particularly monetary policy.  I know this bores most people, which is what the power elite wants to happen.  We must counter this tendency.  I will endeavor to make these concepts as easily understandable as possible, so that the citizens of the empire can know what is happening and how to combat it, both personally and politically.

I am well suited to address this aspect of the warfare state because of my extensive background in financial services and retirement planning.  I know the intricacies of this world; I understand the pitfalls and traps, and I can explain what this all means.  I, by virtue of my past, can help people financially survive, and become politically aware of how to defeat the forces of war.  It is my firm conviction that God wants us to use all our human experience to further His mission.

To further the goal of peace, this site has been constructed to connect you with resources to explore your faith in a practical way, to think about what God wants for His children and to get involved and increase your impact.

May all of us seek, not our will but His!  Praise Be to God!
