Biography

I was regenerated and converted by the grace of the Father, the gospel of the Lord Jesus, and the miraculous power of the Holy Spirit in '99 at the age of 20. The Lord has given me a wonderful family, church, home, and job, and it's all I can do not to approach even closer to the gates of Laodocia (I speak as a man).
