Hi, I am a Christian. I mean with this that I believe in Jesus Christ. I trust him and I follow him.
I am married. We have one son.
My story how I became a christian:
Before age 22 I was a convinced atheist. Then, somehow, I got interested in esoterics. I had one key moment: I tried again some esoteric practices, when I suddenly realized that this is real. I was suddenly completely conviced, that there is something, but something bad and dark.
I was so shocked that I ran to my older sister who was at that time a christian already. She became christian some years before and I always mocked her about her faith.
She told me in that moment that I "opened up" a connection to the devil and there is now an open "claim" or "obligation" as if I contacted the Mafia. Only Jesus could help me and release me.
I was so scared that I prayed to Jesus and ask him to help me. Then, for several days I did not think about this matter any more. On sunday my sister invited me to a church she attended. During the service, when the people sang several songs, I felt as if my heart became burnt free. As if a shell around my heart became removed. I felt completely different and from then on I believed in God.
The years after that were hard with many ups and downs. I learned a lot, I learned about Jesus, the son of God, to follow him, to read and to apply His Word.
I met my wife in a bible study class. She became a Christian shortly before we met. We married and -thanks to God- are still married and we both try to apply His Word daily in our lives.
Presently our aim is to start a new church or group. Here, where we live, we have the impression that it is quite spiritually dead.
