Hi!
I'm a Theology Major and I'm interested to see how everyone here found their Christian path? Check all that apply and explain your journey.

I wasn't really born into any faith. I was around 5 or 6 when my Mother who was a studying Jehovahs witness searching for truth at the time, started going to a Catholic church to appease my Father. I guess it was his faith, not hers, even though he never went with us to church. So I guess born into doesn't really fit. But I know that once I was 13 and was confirmed I stopped going, and from then to now(18 years), my Mother has prayed for me. So I guess she lead me here. Where I was always meant to be.

I have grown up in the church.
I was born in a strict Christian Reformed church.
Eventually moved out of there and after much searching, became a member of the Assemblies of God and have been a part since then.

Born into a Presbyterian church which I don't remember much about. Stopped going around 9 or 10 as Dad was Jewish and I just felt like staying with him and sleeping in on Sundays. Was agnostic for a while when a friend brought me to the church I'm at now which be non-denominational, yo.

My parents made Faith(appropriation of Jesus' obedience/Victory)an integral part of our family life experience hence I grew up with an ever growing appreciation for a 'reasonable response' to my own scarifice, obedience and reliance on His Victory.

I was about 13 years old when my mother suggested I go to the neighborhood AG church revival to check out the girl drummer that played in the band. I was interested in doing that but not interested in church. Walked out a new creation in Christ.

My mom is/was a strong believer so I had that growing up. We went to a church of the Nazarene but later switched to a classical pentecostal church. About 15 years ago the Lord started drawing me to Messinaic Judiasm.

My parents 'believed' that God existed but did not have a relationship with God.
