My faith is of central importance to me, and I try to live and work according to what I believe as a Bible-believing Christian.
I believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and infallible Word of God. I believe what it says is true and trustworthy and that God chooses to reveal Himself through its pages. As such, I choose to base my decisions for life and work on what is found within it.
I believe there is one God, that He is eternal, and that He exists in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
I believe Jesus Christ of Nazareth was fully God and fully man. I believe He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and performed miracles as the four Gospels say. I believe Jesus Christ was crucified to atone for the sins of the world and that He rose from the dead three days later. I believe He ascended back to heaven, where He is now seated at the right hand of God the Father, and He will return one day to judge the earth.
I believe that through His sacrificial death and resurrection, Jesus Christ has made a way for mankind to be reconciled with God, who is holy.
I believe salvation is a free gift and that sanctification takes place through the help of the Holy Spirit.
I believe we are called to a life of following and obeying God and that the mission of Christians is to spread the Gospel of Christ.
Please know that you do not have to agree with this statement of faith in order to work with me. This is my personal belief and what I have chosen for my life. However, if I feel your story or book violates what I believe, I will elect not to work with you on that project and will encourage you to find an editor more aligned with your beliefs.
