From Chapter 2 : Looking for His Light :
Perhaps my friend has a dislike for born again Christians due to a bad experience with someone posing as a Christian. Being a Christian isn't something you say. It is something you do. Religion is law without love, faith is love, and love can save us. Religious law cannot save anyone; nor can it personally transform anyone. When my friend teases me for my faith, I don't take it personally, and he is not the only one. I believe when I'm being teased or mocked, I'm being tested to see if I'm for real. If that's the case and it appears to be that way, then my faith is very real to me, and I will pass the test with God's help.

About the Book
What every believer should know about this beautiful new life. We can be restored from a broken life. We can be personally improved but perfection is not humanly possible. We are called to be healers and workers in faith. Are we healing people with our hands or hurting them? God’s most effective signs of His existence are through human beings who allow themselves to be manifested in God. There is a field of harvest waiting to be yielded by believers or will the lost harvest be winnowed like chaff on the threshing floor. Faith needs believers who take action through compassion not hypocrites who masquerade as believers. There are people who are hurting, who need love by encouraging words and helping hands. If we are truly set free as believers those who are in darkness will be drawn to our light and our joy and they will ask us where does our light and joy come from. What will we tell them?
