#5 – For the Love of God! Stop procrastinating!
Right, so exam season is upon me and I thought I had decided not to write a blog post this week, however it seems that (once again) God has other plans.

#1 – My Story So Far…

I kept redefining myself as a Christian every time I found out more and had spiritual experiences. It’s not like I believed again, there was just more to accept.
