Biography

I'm the second oldest in a family of eight children. Until five years ago, our family was Arminian in our beliefs. Now we are part of a church body that are commited to finding the truth of the Bible. I believe that God is unconditionally souvereign and that the human race is unconditionally depraved among other truths. I believe that God has chosen some from the beginning of the world and that I am one of those chosen few.

Religion / Church Affiliation

Biblicist [Dansville Baptist]
