Who I Am
Hello there. I grew up in a suburb of A major city to a middle-class family. Both of my parents were Christian and raised us 4 children the best they could. I was the oldest, with a sister and two brothers after me. Compared with our wealthy relatives, we felt like we had less, but in hindsight, we were well off compared to where we could have been.
We grew up with many friends and family. Visiting, having sleepovers and enjoying family life. I became Christina at the age of 5 when my Dad led us in the sinner’s prayer along with my sister and younger cousin. I grew up learning about God at home and in Sunday school. I started to read my Bible and went the whole way through by age 12. However, I still couldn’t seem to change my behavior toward other’s and how I felt inside. Sad, lonely and frustrated at times. I would feel God’s face smiling on me when I did right. But when I didn’t do all my duties, I did not. A reflection of how my earthly father lived.
We attended an inner-city church with a former drug addict pastor who was my Dad’s youth leader growing up. A godly man we wanted nothing more than to see the inner-city people’s of Philadelphia saved and serving the Lord. My father and mother brought us into the city every Sunday to be part of the ministry. It was a great time. I loved hearing the sermons filled with the knowledge of the Word. The passion for the inner-city people. I even helped with the sound board during the sermons. I didn’t want to go to Sunday school, but wanted to stay in the services.
My childhood was really good. At the age of 16 we as a family moved to Colorado. It was a big move. Away from all our relatives and friends from before. My parents felt that God was leading them to move to CO. We spent some time transitioning, It was a hard season of my life. I was just getting into junior year at a large high school. I was navigating growing up, girls, jobs, school and God. I wanted to know God better, but felt my relationship was always determined on how I was performing. When I did well we were doing fine, but when I didn’t he was disappointed.
My basketball coach didn’t help matters. He was a hard NYC bred Sicilian man we claimed to be a Christian. I learned a lot of good physical training from him, but spiritually, it was Pharisee-minded.
I spent years there until I went off to college in MN where I met my wife. I was going for one girl and met another. We started as friends through a mutual friend and went to different schools together on the same campus. When we started dating she moved to CA to continue school. We were long distance for like 8 months. When I finished school I surprise travelled to CA to propose to her. She said yes.
