For decades, I have had a passion for contending for the faith and refuting false doctrine. I spent over 20 years compiling various Scripture verses that contradicted common heresies and referred to them often when encountering heretical teaching.
In 2016, I felt led to publish an apologetics resource book containing all the information I had compiled over the years to equip other believers with these truths and educate them in the basic tenants of the faith.
Once published, the publisher set a really high price for my book, which limited the audience I wanted to reach. I also encountered some opposition from an unexpected source when preparing to market my book, which left me confused and questioning what I was doing. Right or wrong, I stopped moving forward, went into a “holding pattern,” and waited on God’s further direction and timing.
Honestly, I was frustrated, extremely annoyed, and felt lost. Although I managed to get my book into a few hands throughout the US and overseas, things were not going “according to plan.” So, I continued waiting and praying.
In 2018, after finally stepping outside my limited perspective of how things “should be,” I sensed God directing me to create a website containing all my book’s information, which would allow me to reach and equip believers from all over the world without costing them anything. It was a win-win situation!
This process was how my Scripture Subjects website was created, which was finally launched in October 2019.
I share this information with you because I do not want you putting God in a box like I did. Jesus will sometimes use us in ways we never expect, but we can get in His way by staying stuck in how we think things should remain. Therefore, always be open to the Holy Spirit’s leading and redirection.
