My name is Keith Giles. I love to write so that people can know Jesus and experience His life in their own.
So, I started this blog to help people understand who Jesus is, and how He reveals what the Father is really like.
This is a safe place to talk about all those questions you've had about the Bible, and Christianity. It's also a place to learn how to put the words of Jesus into practice.

RADIO INTERVIEW WITH DEREK GILBERT (VTFB RADIO)
In case you missed it, here's a link to listen to my one hour interview with Derek Gilbert of View from the Bunker Radio Show in Illinois about my new book, "This Is My Body:Ekklesia as God Intended".
Just listened to your interview with Derek G. for the third time and just wanted to say thank you for it.
I have been tossing the idea of starting a home based church or looking for one for some time. I have grown so tired and frustrated with the corporate church, the constant fleecing of the flock, and the never ending self help books that you have to constantly defend yourself against.
Trouble is, I just don’t have any home church or people who want to start a home church. Pretty much all my Christian friends (though very nice people) are bought into the corp church and would run screaming if I told them why I was thinking of leaving the “fold”.
The last straw was last week when my “pastor” told some story about Oprah to bring home a point about JOY.
Any tips for someone who wants to get into a home church or start one?
Anyway, I will be checking out the books and articles, in the mean time thanks, and pray for me if you would be so kind, I am really struggling with what to do next.
Keith, good interview...well said. I have begun reading your book and find myself saying 'yes'. Remain courageous and stand firm, as you are doing. What you are saying is confronting, yet full of truth and grace. Thank you for sharing. David
