In the columnist's view, there are few circumstances in which biblical teachings do not play a role, and through faith and conviction there are no personal battles that cannot be overcome. All it takes is the right mindset, something which the author's column has attempted to instill in each and every reader for several years. In spite of the strong Christian message behind his work, Layne's hope is that the reader comes away positively affected.
