Discovering Jesus
It was 1968. I had gone for the first time to the Methodist youth group in Inala. A lad had invited me and was apologetic when he realised that the group was going to hear Billy Graham. I was secretly glad. I’d been reading my Gideon’s Bible and getting bogged down in the language but wanted to know more about God. I did have one test for Billy Graham: Martin Luther King had just been shot dead, and I wanted to hear something positive about him. I wasn’t disappointed. As far as I know, it was the first time I’d ever heard the Gospel. I’d never heard of altar calls before, but I couldn’t stay in my seat. I didn’t understand how anyone could! I went out, and gave my life to Jesus.
Paul
