How Eric came to faith: As a child, I periodically attended an episcopal church half-heartedly, and by high school, I stopped attending entirely. However, a Bible, that I never read, remained on my book shelf. One late night, when I was 17, I was compelled to open it, thinking I would find words I couldn't understand and stories that didn't relate. Instead, I discovered in the book of Galatians the message of Jesus Christ which offered new life to those who believe in Him. That night, I asked Jesus for that new life; what a life-changing moment!
