I was a bad kid; I did pretty much what I wanted. I didn’t go to school, stole to occupy my time and got in a bad relationship. I gave my life to Christ when I was 16 and was water baptized; I even felt a call to ministry. After High School I slid back into my old ways, stopped going to church, started smoking and drinking again. When I was 19, I received a phone call; an old friend invited me to church out of the blue. That night I rededicated my life. In that church I met my wife; we were married and moved to OKC where she had received a job. The pastor who married us mentioned Harvest so we looked it up. We knew Harvest was where we were supposed to be; we loved the worship and the people really made us feel at home. Not long after, God called me to NGI. It helped me to see and appreciate how much work it takes to be successful; it also helped me to be more social and outgoing. I am grateful to God for bringing me to Harvest and the life I have today; I don’t know where I would be without Him.
