You’re Welcome Here

 

It doesn’t matter if you’re a long-time believer, a skeptic, a recovering legalist, a curious roman catholic, or just poking around to see what all this is about — you’re welcome here.

 

There’s enough bickering in the Body of Christ. We argue over open-handed issues like we’re defending salvation itself. And the world watches… thinking we’re fools. You know what? The Greek word for fool is idiotes — yep, the same one used in (Acts 4:13) when they called Peter and John untrained and ordinary. I think we’ve all qualified at some point.

 

This space isn’t about denominations, labels, or keeping up appearances. It’s about Christ — and unity in Him. We’re not going to agree on everything. That’s fine. But if we can’t walk together in love, we’ve missed the whole point (John 13:35).

 

If you’re hurting — you’re not alone. Suffering wears a thousand faces. Some of us are grieving, some are doubting, some are numb, and some are just exhausted. But we all suffer in a broken world. And that means you belong here — whether you’re on your knees in surrender or just trying to breathe one more breath.

​

Why “Winnowing”?

 

Winnowing is an ancient process — violent, purposeful, and necessary.

 

It’s how the harvest is separated. The wheat stays. The chaff is carried off by the wind.

 

Scripture uses this imagery to show how God refines His people — not to shame them, but to purify and prepare them (Matthew 3:12, Luke 3:17). It’s not a trendy name. It’s not soft. And it’s not optional. Winnowing is happening — right now. In the world. In the Church. In each of us.

 

That’s what this space is about:

Not performance. Not religion.

But separation, clarity, and calling.

 

It’s not comfortable.

But it is good.

 

So whether you’re being sifted by truth or feel like you’re barely holding on, you’re in the right place. God is refining His people. And if you’re feeling it — that ache, that pull, that unsettling — maybe it’s because you’re part of the harvest.​

The Heart Behind It

 

My name’s Jason, and I believe I’m stepping further into the calling God put on my life — to be a resource for those who are suffering, and to inspire others to do things differently.

 

You can come here and boo-hoo all you want. I mean that. I’m here for it. But after the weeping — what then? How will you respond? How can this creed reshape your perspective? And ultimately, how can a real relationship with Christ renew and transform you?

 

Yes, there’s a time for everything. A time to grieve. A time to wrestle. And eventually, a time to get your poop in a group and walk boldly into your own calling and purpose.

 

I don’t have all the answers. I still struggle too. In fact, I shut this ministry down for over a year. Deleted everything. I was overwhelmed, discouraged, and couldn’t even do the one thing He asked of me: Harvest.

 

But here I am again — not because I have it all figured out — but because I’m not done, and neither are you.

​

His winnowing fork is in hand (Matthew 3:12), and He is gathering His wheat. I believe He’s calling many of us to step out of systems and into a relationship — to move from religious performance to a relationship with Him in faith.

My Belief

 

I believe God’s Word is the final authority — divinely inspired, complete in purpose, and sufficient for every season (2 Timothy 3:16–17).

 

But let’s be honest: we’ve inherited translations shaped by fallible men, denominational agendas, and councils that didn’t always agree. Some versions are easy to read but drift far from the original text. Others are accurate but intimidating to most. Still — I trust that God, through His divine providence, uses even flawed translations and theological disagreements to draw His people deeper into truth (John 16:13). He’s that good.

 

I don’t fit cleanly into today’s religious categories:

 

• I’m not a "protestant", but in truth, we all should be — because anything that stands in opposition to God’s Word deserves protest (Acts 5:29).

• I’m not "roman catholic", but as followers of Yeshua, we do belong to the katholikos — the true, universal Body of Christ as it was originally understood (Ephesians 4:4–6).

 

Tradition has value, but it must always be winnowed through the authority of Scripture (Mark 7:8–9).

​

I’m simply a follower of The Way (Acts 9:2), seeking to abide, not to affiliate (John 15:4–5).

 

I believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus the Christ — not earned, inherited, or conferred by human systems (Ephesians 2:8–9). He alone is the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5), and no earthly institution stands in His place.

 

Jesus — fully God and fully man — came down from heaven, lived the only sinless life, and willingly laid it down for all (Philippians 2:6–8). He wasn’t overpowered — He chose the cross and determined when to say, “It is finished” (John 10:18, John 19:30).

 

He rose on the third day, conquering death (1 Corinthians 15:3–4), walked among men for forty days (Acts 1:3), and ascended to the right hand of the Father, where He remains until His return (Hebrews 1:3, Acts 1:11).

 

The Holy Spirit is with us now — our Helper and Comforter (John 14:26), convicting, teaching, and guiding us into all truth.

 

I believe God is One, yet triune — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — and I wouldn’t pretend to fully explain that mystery (Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19).

 

I believe the Church is both visible and spiritual — made up of those who are born again and committed to following Christ in Spirit and in truth (John 4:23–24).

 

Scripture shows that the early Church had structure — overseers, deacons, and fellowship (Acts 14:23, Philippians 1:1) — but it was led by the Holy Spirit, not by control (Acts 13:2).

 

Finally, I believe the time of winnowing is now — a separating of wheat from chaff (Matthew 3:12). We are called to speak plainly, stand firmly, and love deeply (1 Corinthians 16:13–14).
