About
About a year or so ago my family and I were sitting around the dinner table sharing our opinions about some current issue. I remember wishing that we, as Christians, felt more empowered to trust our faith and to stand together. Seeing this need – the term Ninja Christian popped into my head and out my mouth. We got a good chuckle, but the image of a warrior Christian stuck in my head.
To me, A Ninja Christian is someone who’s developed skills through dedication and effort – someone who knows there’s great power behind being a Christian and is not afraid to be a warrior of faith. It’s a person who gives love and comfort to those in need. They’re always ready to pray, share wisdom, or give encouragement.
This person knows how to chop the devil off at his knees with a few well-placed words and prayers.
A Ninja Christian is a person who uses their skills along with the full armor of God to fight against evil in this world. They stand up for truth and Godliness and fight for those who can’t fight for themselves.
This person knows when to kneel and pray and when to grab their spiritual sword and head into battle.
A Ninja Christian is what I aspire to be. I’ve got a long way to go and a lot of training to do but my goal is to keep keepin’ on. There’s a certain amount of confidence a person gains from being well trained (both mentally and physically). And I would love to be a confident warrior.
Imagine what the world would look like if more Christians had that kind of confidence. The devil would run into roadblocks all the time. He is not in charge here. When we realize we have more authority (through Christ) than the devil, the sooner we can send him packing.
As I continue my Ninja Christian journey I will share what’s on my heart through this blog. There will be times when I’m in “encouraging mode” sharing things I’ve learned. There will be times when I’m in “warrior mode” addressing the war around us. But through it all I hope to motivate, encourage, and help equip others to start their own Ninja Christian journey. Together, I pray, we will all learn to activate our faith. If God is for us, who can be against us!!! We will not only know this – but we will live it!
Kendra Gage, your Ninja Christian-in-training
Becoming a ninja anything takes effort. The purpose of the Ninja Christian website is to encourage you to do something each day to strengthen your skills, your relationship with God and your faith. Without effort there is no growth. Without growth we become complacent and wither away. But by developing your “ninja Christian” skills you can be armed to protect yourself against the devil’s schemes, you can be the strength others need to lean on, and you can be a light – dispensing love, joy, peace and patience to others. All these things are powerful enough to change you and powerful enough to change the world.
