A luminous new chapter

For as long as I remember, I wanted to learn about God. My dad often read to me from The Child’s Story Bible by Catherine F. Vos. My grandmother was an avid student of the Bible and shared her love and knowledge of the Scriptures with me. She encouraged me when I began an at-home Sunday School for my two younger brothers. 

Most summers I attended Bible school with friends. By the time I reached high school, I began teaching Sunday School in the local Episcopal church.

In college, I wanted to continue my spiritual education. I attended chapel services on campus and, infrequently, attended church in town. But I didn’t feel a strong denominational attraction.
