More about Andy:"I'll keep this as brief as possible.... yeah that aint gonna happen.. kk well I used to be a reckless person in and out as far back as I can remember. And at the time I would claim I believed in Jesus even though I didn't understand anything having to do with Christianity. And I certainly didnt live the Christian life. Smoking, drinking, and partying is what my week consisted of.. I was also a serious klepto...it was bad, lets just leave it at that.. So I basically did everything I wanted to do but it left me empty. Soon as I realized that my life was just going in circles and I found no real fulfillment or happiness in anything I decided to really look into Christianity. I had A TON of questions that I wanted answered, but every journey requires that YOU take the first step. Well I did, and that first step was the question about the historical Jesus...and thats what really did it for me. As soon as I found out that this Jesus character REALLY did exist and REALLY was crucified and His tomb was REALLY found empty in the days following his crucifixion my mouth dropped....Expand for more
The other thing that really bugged me out was the fact that the disciples of Jesus would claim Jesus appeared to them after He died even though they knew that they would be put to death for these statements..and they were. "Liars make poor martyrs".. I can't even explain to you people what became of me the following months. I would stay in my room and just look into every question I had and just find a strong logical answer. questions like...The bible and how we know it wasn't changed?....What about other religions?...Why would God have a Hell if he loved us??...Doesnt evolution contradict the Bible?? If Christianity does exist, which church is the right one??..My questions went on foreevveerrr. THEN I decided to pick up the Bible and read it. That book if you can get yourself to read the whole thing (its not easy I know) is the most AMAZINGGGGG book in the world. The more you get into it the deeper it gets.. its insane!! I truly believe that if everyone would read the Bible all the way through and then understand Catholic doctrine, there wouldn't be any non-believers in this world, seriously..and if you doubt that, that means you havent done one of them two things or both..BAM!...And so yeah then changing my ways was the toughest part...but through alot of prayers and strong will I did it...But it is only because of Gods grace that I could do it. And you know what? That emptiness is no longer there..at all. Its nothing I can explain..back when I was younger all christians seemed crazy to me when they spoke like how I'm speaking now...but I definitely understand now why they sound so crazy ..because you really try to express the joy and love that God gives you to someone else and you cant do it.. and its dumb frustrating! lol Thats why in the Bible Paul says "we become fools for Christ's sake"...And I love it...So all I can say is this ...If you really seek with an open heart and mind, you will find God...and that is my brief bio lollll..ya dont understand, this was supposed to be like 5 sentences long...but if ya have any questions dont be a punk ...ask me!".
