It was pretty much a make or break type situation: I was either going to stop being a believer or I was going to commit and dedicate myself fully to live life as a Christian. So, I went to the local library and the book store and checked out and bought several books with Antony Flew's "There is a God" being one of them. Although in the book he doesn't profess his faith in Christ, but the fact that a life-long atheist considered to be a great mind had intellectually come to realize he may be wrong made a huge impact on me. This was actually the first book I read in my journey in 2007. It really helped me be intellectually open-minded about our faith. Because, to be honest, I think I was hoping to be let off the hook with this whole God thing like so many other people more intelligent than me. So, what I'm trying to say is that Antony Flew helped save my faith. I wish I could have told him. During the summer of 2007, I went through a period of spiritual warfare.
