My Story: Luke
When I first came to University I was not a Christian. I had never really considered the existence of God until I was invited along to Alpha by one of my housemates. To start with I was quite sceptical, offering alternative explanations for whatever I heard. As the course went on I found that my questions were being answered and some of the things being said made more and more sense. When I was invited to a Sunday meeting at Churchcentral I found the church totally different to my view of what a church was. There were people my own age, they were friendly and welcoming, and they actually seemed to enjoy worshiping God. However I was still unsure exactly how it was possible to know God existed, so my friend recommended praying. Next Sunday came around and during a time of worship I started to pray and ask God to reveal himself to me. Then during the meeting a member of the church I didn’t know spoke something to me that explained my situation exactly – God had heard me! A few days later I became a Christian. Since then I have had lots of opportunities to get connected into the church. My life has been totally changed. I love church and am currently taking a year out to work for the Churchcentral and study on a FP Impact year.
