Many have become disconnected from their faith and/or relationship with God. However in Truth it is never really possible to be disconnected from God, we in fact only live disconnected. Some have been hurt or abused by the church or religion. Some have come to the conclusion that their life experiences or questions about life are not adequately answered by religion. Some are rejected or excluded my mainstream religion because of who they are. Many just do not like what they see identified as "organized religion".
However, what passes for religion, or church or even faith is not a reflection or true representation of God. God is much more than what can be defined by religion, captured in a book or explained by humankind. God can not be defined by mere words, or doctrines.
God is Love! This is more than a platitude. It is the best starting place for understanding God. What is Love? Is it a feeling? Is it an action? Love is a force, power and source. Love is a human need, hunger and desire. Love is found in God. Love is a gift from God. Love is the way of God. Love is the way of those who follow and know God. What is not Love or of Love is not of God. Seems simple, and yet people have such a hard time living this truth.
No matter who you are, where you have been, what you think of God, religion or church. We all need, desire and are looking for Love. God wants to connect with you in a real way. God wants to Love you. God wants you to find this love and live loved. This is relationship with God. Daily living in, experiencing and resting in this Love.
This connection to God and Love for many is a reconnection. That is why God gave this ministry such a name. God has called me to share the Good News of God's love so that all can reconnect with the source of Love and Life. This is Salvation....this is New Life!
