...brave and humble...

About Me

I am a Christian. That is the most important thing to know about me, and it is the most important part of my life. I try to walk wisely before my God and my fellow men. If you want to spark conversation with me, just bring up God and watch me come alive.
I'm a reserved kind of person. I enjoy talking and thinking about abstract stuff like religion, philosophy, dreams, etc. I think I'm a generally friendly kind of guy. And I can't keep myself on a schedule to save my life. I'm an INFP, if you know anything about Myers/Briggs temperament types.
I am an activist of a lesser sort. I am moved by the crisis in Darfur. But I am also concerned with other humanitarian and environmental causes. Basically anything that involves the advancement of good in the world (and the retreat of evil) is of interest to me.
My AIM screenname is phinny5608. Anyone is welcome to message me, friend or foe or completely unknown. Especially if you have questions (or complaints) about Christianity, but even if not...

"Dont judge me!"

According to Mr. Greg Pinkner-- who, as I said before, I regard as a man who knows what he’s talking about-- being judgmental is when you hold others to a standard, but not yourself. In other wo...
