Dear New Believer, Love God shares with readers your personal insights and provides practical advice on how to develop a personal relationship with God while explaining complex spiritual concepts in a way new believers can understand. What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?

Developing a personal relationship with God is what Christianity is all about.  Although I don’t discourage anyone from doing so, going to church, reading the Bible, tithing, and any other legalistic rituals are not a must in order for you to develop a personal relationship with God.  My book advocates for reliance directly on God rather than church and other Christians.

What is one piece of advice you wish someone had given you when you were starting out on your spiritual journey?

I wish someone would have told me that I am able to develop a personal one-on-one relationship with God and that I can reach out directly to Him for the help I so desperately needed.  I became reliant on the churches I attended and the fellow Christians I met for the help that only God could provide.  Furthermore, I wish someone would have taught me more about the devil.  I was so spiritually immature, not only God’s ways, but to the devil’s tactics, and it led me to become fully taken over by him.  I was in bondage for years before I learned (directly from God), to call out for His help and to stop looking to the church and others for help.

What do you hope is one thing readers take away from your book?

Going to church, reading the Bible, tithing, and any other legalistic expectations are not necessary in order to develop a personal one-on-one relationship with God.  He is your direct source for everything you need.  Furthermore, the enemy is very real and can be very dangerous if you are unfamiliar with how he operates.  God can teach you all you need to know.
