Favorite Quote of all time?
“If life is to have meaning, and if God’s will is to be done, all of us have to accept who we are and what we are, give it back to God, and thank Him for the way He made us. What I am is God’s gift to me; what I do with it is my gift to Him.” — Warren Wiersbe

What is your hope for Reliance Church?
My hope for this community is to remember God’s promises in 1 Peter 2:9-10 saying, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.” — You are unique, you are set apart, and you matter in the kingdom of God. He has a greater purpose for your life my friend!
