If you typed my name at the beginning of the website address shortly after the www and slightly before the wordpress.com then you probably already know that my name is Kent Brown and that I am a Christ-follower, husband, brother, minister, friend and many other things. If you got to this blog some other way or simply stumble upon it while trying to find a blog by some other guy with a name similar to mine, then I guess that’s news to you.
I believe wholeheartedly that there is a God, that he is good, and that he created everything that you and I know. I believe that He created it all and at the end of each day of creation He saw that what he had made was good. That is, until the end of the sixth day of creating when he says that it is all “very good.” Its subtle, but I believe it’s God’s way of saying that when the sun comes up on the seventh day that the world is exactly the way He wanted it to be. People and God lived perfectly together, people lived in harmony with one another, and people lived in a world where they were at peace with the entire creation. Of course, when they ate the fruit, that all fell apart and evil entered the world. Since then God has tried to rid this world of evil and return to that very good seventh day. He used exile, floods, and confusing languages before starting a new plan that led to the birth, and eventually death of Jesus Christ. On that day when Jesus was betrayed, abandoned, spit on, mocked, beaten, torn apart, humiliated, tortured, crucified and stabbed to death, he took all of the evil in the world and absorbed it onto himself. When he arose from the dead three days later he essentially defeated all of that evil and calls me (and you if you are willing) to join him in defeating evil.
So that’s where my story begins and will someday end. Today Heaven exists inside of me and I am doing everything I can to see that God’s will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. I hope that this becomes a place for me to share that journey and adventure with you while recording and exploring it myself.
