Evangelists'
Testimonies
Ann cannot
remember a time when she did not believe in God. Christine Loker was brought up in a home where Jesus was spoken about
but her parents didn't actually attend church on a regular basis. ‘From hungry caterpillar to butterfly!’ is how Dee describes
herself! Gabi Anderson was born the year 'The Wall' went up Gabi picked up a book
titled “The Lost Woman" and then curiosity got the better of
her. Let her tell you what happened in her own words. Geoff Baker always
thought Christians were very odd people and most of the those he had met
were either pompous or very sad. Janet begins
by saying that when people write testimonies they often begin with life
before they came to know Jesus, is this how it was for her? Read what she
says...... Jean Kerr’s story is an ordinary story of a child growing up in
a poor but loving home. In other ways it is an extraordinary story of God's
amazing love and intervention. Jenny Silver, after 8 years of marriage, found herself facing a divorce
but God never deserted her! Another Jenny but
a different story.Jenny was able to give to God the anger and resentment she
felt
after her son died
in
tragic circumstances. Judy Etheridge retired
from teaching and thought that she would plan the rest of her life! She
was excited by the thought of choosing to do something
completely different. For Kim, life began at 40!!! Laury did
not believe in God at the time other than to use Him in an emergency. Leonora was sent to stay with a family who were atheists and felt alone,
but was she? Lorna thinks "I’m
afraid my testimony is rather boring. I was bought up in a Christian home
and was taken to church as a baby and
been going ever since.” The only reason Lorraine was christened Anglican was just
to stop her mother’s mother in law getting her own way and having
her christened into the another faith. Margaret says that it is said that the Christian faith is like being on
a journey. It was only as a teenager that Marigold began to feel guilt that her mother
had died as a result of the heart condition brought about through Marigold’s
birth. Not one for visions, Roger was laying quietly in bed when he received
what can only be described as a vision. Sally rebelled against
every one; she got into awful trouble in school and did the opposite to
what she was told. She'd be beaten for her bad behaviour
but she didn't care. Sheila says that her teenage years were rebellious ones, ending with a
disastrous marriage which lasted for just nine months. There was no Jesus in Shirley’s life until she married Don, an architect. How did the humble ballcock and ghosts lead Stephen to Christ? Trevor felt so awful that he would have bathed in cold custard or anything
else to feel better. 'Do U know What God’s Plan Is 4 U'? Veronica thought
she did until…….. God does not let you stay still as Vicky found – He kept nudging
her to do things she didn’t think she was capable of! God still dusts Willie down,
and answers his prayers although not always in the way Willie expects. Yvonne’s journey
with God started by attending Sunday School, but she didn’t know
why!
