I grew up in a Christian home but never really decided to have a personal relationship with Christ until I was 15 years old.  There were definitely some ups and downs along the way when I was a teenager and trying to make my faith my own. 

It wasn’t until I went away to university that I discovered that I wanted to live out God's will in everything I did.  At that time, I got involved with a church that really distorted the truth of God and if it weren't for God bringing the right people into my life at that time, I honestly believe I would still be with that church.  That made me realize how much I don't know God's word and it convicted me from then on that I needed to be a better student of Him. 

It was there that I got involved with Power to Change (formerly Campus for Christ) on-campus and discovered what it meant to evangelize and be a disciple of Him.  Since that point, I have been very passionate about His kingdom work and how important it is to be obedient to His authority/will in my life.  I can honestly say God is my first love and I desire nothing more than to glorify Him.
