ADVENTIST UPBRINGING pain. Several times I attempted suicide in my desperation or in times when drug supplies were low. Life was a dark blur of desperate, living hell. But God had not forsaken me. His love was greater than all my sin. I remember numerous times during those days when God appealed to me through people, events, dreams, and circumstances to draw me to Him. One night in February of 1978, I was on a drug experience with one of my buddies, when we both began to think clearly. This was especially unusual since the drug known as “Angel Dust” commonly had the opposite effect. That night we both started talking about God and our own spiritual hunger. We saw our lives as they truly were, lost and broken. We realized that our lives were on a dangerous trajectory with only death or destruction awaiting us. We decided that night, with tears streaming down our faces, that we were going to join a “Jesus freak” commune just out of Los Angeles, California, and try to find the Lord. What I did not know at the time was that I had invited Jesus into my life. Instead of running away from Him, I had started walking toward Him. Jesus started a transformation in my life that is nothing short of miraculous. I soon found myself in a Christian recovery center called The Bridge Fellowship in Kentucky. For seven months I grew in the Word and in relationship with Jesus. I fell in love with the One who loved me first. I had personally experienced grace! For the first time in my life I began to understand what it meant to be a Christian. I had passed from death into life. My life would never be the same again. I will always be grateful to God for His amazing grace! While at the recovery center, I started reading God’s Word for myself, not just for a class assignment as I had done growing up. I began growing as a Christian as well as getting clean (sober). Those were wonderful days as I developed a personal walk with Jesus and learned about His personal love for me. I determined at that time that I was going to be a Christian, but I would never become an 25
DISCOVERING THE NEW COVENANT Adventist again. My name had never been taken off of the church books, but I did not consider myself an SDA. I just wanted to be a believer in Jesus. I had felt so lost and so trapped by the legalism of my childhood and private high school days that I could not bear the thought of going back into that. I was a Christian now, and that was enough for me. 26
