This is the autobiography of a young mans journey of faith and how the issue of "fitting in" impacted every area of his life. It deals with his curiousity into spiritual things as a toddler and how he attempted to follow the leading of God's Spirit into a spiritual conversion even though he was raised in the Church, and had aspirations of entering the priesthood. It covers the every day struggles of a teenager as well as the difficulties of being a young man who felt totally unprepared for the tensions of the world outside due to hyper critical upbringing, and living in a home with an alcoholic parent. Lastly the author shares the grace and wisdom he obtained over twenty five years in the pastoral ministry, as well as his training in biblical studies. This book is for everyone who has a desire for God and the authors intent is that everyone would be drawn into a deeper walk with the Lord irrespective of their religious beliefs.
