“Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me All the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of Jehovah For the length of my days.” Psalm 23:6 Like David, I too must declare that the Lord’s goodness and lovingkindness has filled my life, and for the rest...

Hello, and thank you for reading this. I grew up in a loving, yet somewhat eccentric family. My dad held a normal blue collar job as a sewer maintainer, and my mom was a nursery school director. We three kids grew up around motorcycles, acting, and singing—hence the...

By the time I graduated I felt malnourished in my Christian life. Outwardly I was a “good Christian” and didn’t get into trouble, however, within, the Lord didn’t have the first place and He was relegated to Sundays. I left for college in Maine on August 1980 at the age of eighteen. For the first time I was not under my parents’ eyes. I tried to throw off all restraint and enjoy the “world” much like the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32. The more I indulged in the “temporary” enjoyment of sin the more empty and vain I felt.

My parents were saved before I was born. They lived in Puerto Rico at the time, and eventually they became actively involved with the Christian Missionary Alliance there. When I was one year old, my parents were led by the Lord to go to the Dominican Republic as...

Hello. I was born in 1957. When I was 5 years old, my parents divorced and both remarried. There were five of us children; then, each step parent brought one child from their previous marriage and each new marriage produced one new child for a total of nine children....

As a 10 year old I had no real guidance from my parents, so I was always getting into fights at school and doing bad things. I was an untrained, unguided, undisciplined brat; but I didn’t get into real trouble until I was talked into breaking into some summer peoples’...

As I hitchhiked home on that clear autumn afternoon, my heart ached inside. I was all alone on a winding country road having just left my high school dream for the last time. Since my freshman year I had wanted to get to know her. Then at last, in our senior year, we...

The years have proven to me that God is faithful! My life has not been extraordinary, but in all the hours, days and years when I was not faithful, God remained the same—faithful. I’m a native of California and was raised in a fundamental Christian home believing in...

One conversation that really stuck with me was a conversation with a born-again Christian out in Wyoming. He told me that if you have never tasted a peanut butter milkshake, you have no idea how good it is. This was a comparison to the sweetness of the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Even though I was a scoffer and a skeptic at the time, God was gaining me little by little
