Born in sin, I was graciously rescued from the grip of hell at age five. Since then I have actively shared the Gospel with as many as the Lord has called me to. The Lord has blessed me with a beautiful wife and seven children so far. This is the congregation He has given me. May I teach them in the manner in which He would be well pleased.

Southerland Family Vision

As my first blog entry I thought it entirely appropriate to list our newly created Family Vision Statement. Proverbs 29:18 tells us that where there is no vision, the people perish. Here is the Vision Statement:

We will glorify and enjoy the Triune God forever by trusting our Lord Jesus Christ alone to provide our salvation by grace alone through faith alone, obeying Him according to His commandments in scripture alone, and fulfilling the Genesis Dominion Mandate by raising godly sons and daughters who will positively influence and reform the three spheres of God ordained government, consisting of the family, the church, and the state. This we shall continue until the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, all for the glory of God alone.

Dear Mike

What great insight into the word of God. I love the statement about raising godly sons and daughters to impact our world. Please keep up the most excellent work. All in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
