Radioactive Truth = Radioactive Youth

Dear World,
My name is Grace. Throughout the past 2 years my family and I have joined the Messianic movement. Up until then, I was taught, drilled, and tested the doctrine of the Christian church. I was raised to be a girl, and later a woman, that knew all the right answers and was a deeply committed to church related events and the “Salvation of others.” The transformation of my life and my family’s caused a nuclear social explosion that was visible on the church radar throughout the nation via friends and family. Although the mile marker that I am at now was well worth the road that was used to get here, it was not traveled without struggles and hardships. My relationship with everyone I knew changed. For some, I was accepted and able to talk about my findings and understandings with an open heart and mouth. For others, I was respectfully listened to, but the topic was skirted around ever since causing friendships to turn to acquaintances. And yet still for some, the way I am living my life is too much. I now have people praying for my “lost” soul.
After time and time again being scorned and shut down from any discussions on the Messianic movement, I decided that I should set up a website that I could freely speak my mind. My one goal for this site is to encourage and uplift torah-keeping teens that are constantly being thrown to the lions because of their faith. Although I know that it sounds like a total cliché but I want to invite all of you to come on an adventure with me. The Torah, the holy word of Yahweh, is the only tool that will be of any standing when going up against the adversary.
Shalom.
