This book was written out of my heart's desire to understand the why and wherefore of the common practices of Christianity. Although this book is written for the new believer, it is also a refresher for the person who has forgotten the reasons why we do...what we do. Many of the characteristics of the Church are not addressed as to its origin. Thereby, the New Believers often are missing out on the essential knowledge of why we need for such actions. In overlooking these precepts, we thereby miss the enabling power and meaning of trademarks of the belief system. But it is important that we all understand the need for the concepts in the Word. Why do we baptize? Why do we take communion? This book explores the possibilities of Christian terms and how that they relate to the believer of Jesus Christ. Also, there are testimonies that will remind you of the love of Jesus Christ. These testimonies are taken from a people who, just like you, found that God met them in their lives. It is my hope that this will be a tool that leads the reader into possibilities which await the children of a Mighty God. Author Penny Kirksey lives in Tupelo, MS. as a wife, mother and grandmother. Having served in many areas of the church over the last forty years, Penny ministers primarily as a Prophetic Intercessor. It was her curiosity of the expected traditions of the church that caused her to spend time researching the purposes of the terms and foundations of the Christian belief system.
