Closer to God

By Nik

I'd come to Thailand for business purposes and there met one of the Family International's members. I was amazed to discover that your disciples are truly living and spreading the pure message of God. I have read some of the books of David Brandt Berg, and the more I read, the closer I get to God.

Family members are not "Sunday only" or "fair weather" Christians. I'd read the Bible a number of times and had attended church services on Sunday, but I realized that what you have is above all that. I've received so many answers to my questions from the MOP, Daily Might, Mountain Streams, and Activated magazines.

As a religious person, I'd been wondering what I could do for God. I even thought of becoming a monk, but wasn't sure that I was cut out for such a vocation. The Family International has helped me to discover how I could serve God in my own life, and to grow in my understanding of His ways.
