RED Wants YOU!

In  a small town, very similar to this one, lived a lively young child of God.  This child of God loved to play with friends, learn new things and especially enjoyed the brief moments with family.  For whatever reason family moments for this child of God were scarce and not always the happiest times, but still this child of God treasured any moment spent with family.
Now the day had come when this child of God was asked to be more than a friend to his playmates and rather than just learn about new things; this child of God was to share this knowledge with others.  "Me? You want me to share with others?" the child of God questioned.  "Who am I to share what others have taught me?  I couldn't possibly do this.  No, no I wont do it.  I can't do it."  muttered the child of God.
And so it went, this child of God continued on journeying through life.  Friends became family and life was like a stagnant pond of water; you can find life if you look hard enough, but on the surface it just stinks.  This once lively child of God eager to learn new things become stagnant too.  What was this child of God to do?  Being the adventurous type, this child of God set out to search for this lost "liveliness".  It wasn't a very long adventure in terms of distance, however the time it took, well that was journey in itself.  This child of God found the source of liveliness not just in learning new things but sharing these learned ideas and praxis with others.  In the excitement of sharing this newly found knowledge, time with family had become this Child of God's source of inspiration and the true source of liveliness.    
It may seem that this would be the conclusion of our tale, however that isn't so.  God loves his child very much and provides plenty of opportunities for his children to grow and continue to be inspired.  You see, RED wants to welcome you, child of God, to share your knowledge gained by others so others can do the same.
