The obvious stuff "about me": 6'8" 289lbs., athletic build, green eyes, brown hair. The other stuff: I'm a bit laughy.

What you may not know about Coach Larry Clay Lonis ……. I'm blessed to have an amazing girlfriend who is RUNNING after GOD. My heroes: My GOD, Jesus Christ, My Grandfather, and Grandmother. Willing to do whatever necessary to draw nearer to my GOD. He has done an amazing work in me and completely reformed me after pulling me through a previous life of trial without a spot on my garments, and without a reason to fear this world.

I believe FULLY in loving people into the Church (Eph 4:15). I still have yet to see ONE person be put into a healthy relationship with the KING after being bible beaten into the Church, as compared to trying to live up to the expectations of their peers. I'm indignant against gossip in the church. I've seen firsthand what type of problems it can cause between people (Prov 16:21). I believe religion is man's attempt to get closer to God and in some cases even his attempt to be worshipped in his congregation as if he himself was a God. I believe people "are where they are" and that everyone is in their own process. That doesn't mean I leave them where they stand...we are meant to sharpen one another, but again, by 'speaking the truth in love'. The bible is symbolic in many instances but in a very life giving and life 'meaning' way. (Prov 27:17) Iron does sharpen Iron, but not by a hard smashing from one piece to another, but by a smooth rub from one piece to another.

While all of this is true, I'm still not one to challenge your beliefs or to be the one to come down on you for how you think UNLESS it affects those that I care about, misleads others into a path of death, or unless it effects or my peace with GOD. Even then, I will still do my best to say whatever I may think, as tactfully as possible, and with care of your feelings.

I am secure while inside this world around me, but at the risk of sounding too harsh, one can't help but to be skeptical of the people around him whilethey scream out "Save the trees" and "Kill the babies".
