Sam, My Story

Aged 7, I came to realised my own mortality and that someday I'm going to die! I spent the next two weeks crying myself to sleep at the thought of this. I managed to put this to the back of my mind and started thinking of ways to avoid dying. I grew older and I was introduced to the philosophical argument of Pascal's Wager and the concept that humans bet with their lives that God either exists, or does not. And in that frame of mind when invited to a Youth meeting, I thought “Why not give it a go? If I don’t like it I’ve only lost a Thursday evening.” I liked it. I was interested to hear about Jesus and everything He had done for me. And sometime later made the decision to enter into a relationship with the creator of the universe.
