Welcome to MOTL.com!
Who am I?
My name is Nick Charette I am 21 years old and I am from Glendale AZ. I come from a family of five, which includes my two awesome parents Jim and Tina who have been married for 24 years and still going strong, my younger brother Brandon who is 19, and my younger sister Ashley who is 14. I am so greatful for their guidance and support. I currently am a member at Parkway community church of God at 16th street and Maryland. I have been going there for about 4 years now and love it! I am a youth leader there and have worked with youth on a regular basis for over three years now. Currently, I am the head of the drama ministry at Parkway, and I also head up our cell group ministry. I also, from time to time, preach at our Sunday night youth services. I am currently pursuing my Associates degree at Western bible College and loving it, I am also in a relationship with my beautiful girlfriend Tori whom you see in the picture here. God has really blessed me, and I have a burning passion inside me to do God's will for my life. God has made me who I am, and he is what I live for!
What is MOTL.com?
More Of The Lord.com or (MOTL.com) is a site I decided to create because this world desperately needs More Of The Lord. Statistically 98% of people in the U.S claim they believe in God, the majority will say they are Christian and sadly that is not the case. MOTL.com is about finding something to live for, more importantly "someone" to live for. His name is Jesus Christ and he died for all of mankind so that are sins would be forgiven.(Romans 5:8 NIV) But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Not only is the world lost, but at the same time so many "Christians" are not rising above the worlds standard as God has called us to do. Now I am the first to admit that I am not perfect, and this verse was an eye opener for me.The Bible tells us in (2 Corinthians 13:5 NIV)"Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you-unless, of course, you fail the test?" We all have fallen short of God's glorious standard, (Romans 3:23 NIV) but God has called us to believe in his son Jesus, and believe that he died for our sins to save us from the consequence of our actions.(Romans 6:23)For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 10:9,10 NIV) says "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." It's as easy as that! so will you accept Jesus as your Lord and savior? It's all up to you. Please feel free to share your testimonies on the (Whats your story?) page. If you have felt the awesome presence of God or have seen God do something amazing, please share what God has done for you or someone you know, or Both!
