This is more like bulleting news, not a normal post but I thought it was a good idea to let you know about the upcoming changes and plans. Life is a journey full of ups and downs, triumphs and trials, laughter and tears. At Beyond Salvation, we’ve always strived to reflect the reality of our Christian walk – celebrating God’s grace, confronting life’s struggles, and seeking deeper freedom in Christ. Today, we’re thrilled to share a transformative update: we’re evolving from Live, Love & Learn to Laugh, Cry & Live.
This new chapter is more than a name change; it’s a fresh expression of our mission to be real, raw, and relatable. It’s an invitation to journey with us, experiencing the joys and challenges of faith in a way that connects, inspires, and transforms.
Why Laugh, Cry & Live?
As Christians, we’re called to “weep with those who weep” and “rejoice with those who rejoice” (Romans 12:15). Faith isn’t just about smiling through the storms or pretending everything’s perfect, it’s about embracing life in all its messy, beautiful reality.
- Laugh: We laugh because we’ve experienced the joy of the Lord, which is our strength (Nehemiah 8:10). Life’s funny moments, the unexpected blessings, and the simple joys remind us that God’s goodness shines even in the mundane.
- Cry: Tears are a part of the journey. They bring healing and connection from grief, repentance, or empathy for others. Psalm 56:8 tells us that God collects our tears—proof that our struggles matter to Him.
- Live: Living in Christ means embracing purpose, walking in faith, and taking up our call to set captives free. We’re here to show that life in Christ is full—full of grace, full of purpose, and full of freedom.
The Heart of Beyond Salvation
At the core of our work is a commitment to authenticity. We don’t sugarcoat the challenges of faith or gloss over the hard questions. Instead, we share our Christian experiences—the good, the bad, and the messy.
Faith is a Journey, Not a Destination
Just like Pilgrim in The Pilgrim’s Progress, we’re all on a journey. For some, it’s about overcoming addiction or grief. For others, it’s learning to trust God in uncertain times. Wherever you are, our goal is to walk alongside you, offering encouragement, biblical insights, and a reminder that you’re never alone.
Real Struggles, Real Victories
From personal testimonies to reflections on Scripture, we dive deep into what it means to live out faith authentically. We talk about the victories that make us shout for joy and the struggles that bring us to our knees.
A Vision Beyond Words
Beyond Salvation isn’t just a blog or a community—it’s a vision for the future. Our ultimate goal is to build a nonprofit organization focused on rescuing victims of human trafficking and modern-day slavery.
Inspired by Isaiah 61:1, we believe we’re called to “proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.” There’s no greater mission than bringing hope, healing, and freedom to those who need it most.
Through prayer, action, and faith, we’re committed to making a tangible impact in the lives of those who are bound. Every post, every story, and every interaction is a step toward this greater purpose.
Join the Laugh, Cry & Live Movement
We want Beyond Salvation to be more than a website—it’s a space for connection, growth, and transformation. Here’s how you can be a part of it:
- Read and Share: Dive into our posts and share them with friends, family, or anyone who needs encouragement.
- Engage: Comment, share your own stories, or contact us directly. We love hearing from you.
- Pray with Us: Pray for our mission, those who are hurting, and the nonprofit vision we’re building.
- Support Us: While this isn’t the focus, we are planning on starting a faceless YouTube channel for now, and a podcast if possible. Your support is much appreciated.
What’s Next?
In the coming months, you’ll see new series, deeper reflections, and practical guides to living out your faith. We’ll be exploring themes like:
- The Hero’s Journey through the lens of Pilgrim’s Progress.
- Lessons from the Pilgrim’s Progress – we will be diving deeper into the lessons we learn from each character
- Stories of hope and redemption from the lives of others.
This is a space where we can laugh together, cry together, and ultimately live out God’s purpose in each of us.
Final Thoughts
As we embrace Laugh, Cry & Live, we’re reminded that faith isn’t a perfect, straight path. It’s filled with twists, turns, and growth moments. But through it all, we serve a God who loves us, leads us, and brings beauty out of brokenness.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s laugh, cry, and live out our faith with boldness and joy. A special thank you to our readers who have left comments, and reached out through our contact form. Without you dear reader, Beyond Salvation wouldn’t not be what it is today. God Bless You and Your Family.
Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. - 3 John 1:2(NIV)
