Thank you for this powerful thought provoking survey. I really love the Lord and serving him. There is nothing I like better than stewardship because I am able to serve in a wide range of Christian needs, helping others with salvation, bible study, understanding the Holy Spirit and the list goes on. I was raised in a Christian home. I understand that being a Christian doesn't always mean we will not have struggles; but, that to is apart of stewardship in reaching out to help myself to overcome the issue I am facing. I am really enjoying Kyria and the Christian Today community fellowship.
