I launched this site to help make people more aware of Jesus Christ and his message. For now, my focus is on Jesus’ spoken words as recorded in the Bible. Please note that I am using the New Living Translation (NLT). I am not a Bible scholar, but someone who wants to share the good news found in Scripture. I encourage everyone to do their own research, read the Bible for themselves, and reach their own conclusions. I hope you enjoy the site!
