1I was born and raised in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Cape Town, South Africa. As a child, I attended a major denominational church, but as my family fell apart during my teenage years, I became disillusioned with what I thought I knew Christianity to be. Through my Kung Fu teacher, I was introduced to Buddhism. I became an adherent of that religion for about ten years. I, however, found myself so empty and without joy and peace in my life. I began to question the reason and purposed for my life. At the age of twenty-seven, I decided to reach out to God (whoever He was) and asked Him to make Himself known to me. I told God that if He is real, it should not be difficult for Him to let a mere man, like me, know He is real. At that moment, I felt a burden lifted off my life, and it began my pursuit of this God who answered my prayer so quickly. Where before I shunned the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I now found myself intently listening to it whenever people preached or read it out loud. I loved to listen to people worship God, even if I did not participate. Over a period of about four months of gently wooing me, I was "caught" by the fisher of men, and became His disciple and have been serving Him faithfully ever since. There is no one like Him in all the earth, no one who can save, deliver, and heal like He does. What a wonderful savior and God He is. Over the years, God has used using me in effective ways to minister healing and deliverance to His children in these five areas of life as believers in Jesus Christ.
