“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” Matthew 7:7
Since coming to Lake Avenue Church, people ask me questions that I myself have wondered about before. But, just as often, here in Southern CA I’ve found that some of the questions are about matters I had never really considered. Tattoos? Ancestor boxes? Cremation? Following Jesus without dishonoring parents when turning to Jesus from Buddhism??? These are just a few of the issues the people at LAC write me about. So, I look at God’s Word and seek to provide some guidance and direction. I have wondered whether others have questions about related matters – though they have never asked. Finally, my Executive Assistant convinced me to post parts of my responses via this blogging medium.
Perhaps you are searching for answers to the issues that others have brought to me. My hope is that what you read in my blog will, at the very least, send you to God’s Word to discover wisdom and direction beyond anything a blogger might offer. If you don’t find your issue addressed here, feel free to ask it. I may not be able to get to it immediately – but, of course, if you do not ask then I will never get to it.
I especially enjoy communicating with people who desire to do what is biblical, loving, and right. Together, we might be able to seek principles from scripture and discern a good path forward.
To His Glory,
Dr. Greg Waybright
Senior Pastor
