russ:if it's not to personal a question & u don't mind me asking what made u become a christian?

I was brought up as a Catholic but left the faith when I was 18 as I felt it was doing nothing for me. I still believed in God but somehow all the rules and regulation just didn't seem right for me. I always wanted to return to religion in some way and was just waiting for the right time.
In february of last year I met a student nurse from London who was a Christian and to cut a long story short, I knew this was the opportunity I was waiting for. I went along to her church which was very different to the catholic ways and I knew instantly that this was for me. I then became a Christian on august 26th last year and have not looked back since.

isn't that something christians are supposed to do?

Yes it is, and I kind of do it in my own way. Instead of going out and preaching (or as many people see it,
hassling), I just make sure everyone knows I'm a Christian and if they want to know more, they can approach me to discuss it. That way I guess I could be seen as 'looking for converts' but they are coming to
me, so no-one can accuse me of hassling them. Some people just don't wish to know and I'm leaving them well alone.
