My Spiritual Resume! by Damien S. Riley

Since in the past 30+ years or so I have offered my voice and intend to continue broadcasting my public written and spoken views of Christianity in the post-modern era, here is my attempt at a “spiritual resume” to declare my informal authority.  Note: since about 2015 I am a practicing Buddhist. There is no longer an evangelical component in my continued and evolving spirituality. This document is not here to give my detractors and critics ammo. Thank you. Hope springs eternal but hatred is nothing new to this theme throughout the recorded history of humankind. I try to not take it personally when I see it. This is mostly for me. I made it to forward to others in theory to save time going forward. Thank you for your interest 🤠

My “Spiritual Resume” is below.

As a spiritual and attemptedly honest person, I recall there is a remnant or more of evidence I have had the following roles in my life:

Experienced worship leader, Accomplished Guitar Player in the church, Amateur piano player in the church, Wedding & Funeral leadership leader and participant,  Prayer group leader, Bilingual Spanish/English witnessing Christian in a variety of locales and modalities including California and Mexico, Bible teacher and Devotional leader across several demographics in Southern California off and on for 35+ years, Attendee or Member of record for varying periods of time at High Desert Church, Calvary Chapel, Saddleback Church, and Harvest Christian Fellowship, and other churches both small and mega-style, Wisdom advocate and once associate of Pastors/Authors Chuck Smith Jr., John Hallowell, Rick Moore, and several other key humans I considered influencers in modern Christianity, Valued member of my community’s public groups wherever I have resided, and Lastly, I Am An Awake Human.
