You know, just looking back at my childhood, I remember powerful, powerful services there

that made a lasting impression on me as a child, you know.

Enough that it became very evident and clear to me that this was real, that this was genuine. And I saw the presence of God

in operation enough times to not wonder if this was real. And it kept me through my childhood.

It eventually kept me through my teen years,

although I had times when I struggled like anybody else,

but I kept going back to that.
