Ken's testimony


In early 1989 I was in serious trouble. I was married with children, active in church, and yet very involved in homosexual activity. I was literally in the depths of hell trying to deal with the issue by myself. I couldn't deal with the tremendous conflict going on inside me. I had decided to either take my life or leave my family.

Although I was not close to the Lord, and avoided prayer, He heard the cries of my heart, and literally lifted me out of the mire. I knew I could not succeed without some kind of support system. In addition to some good therapy, Evergreen came into my life. I was then able to experience the beautiful principle of repentance, and develop a personal relationship with my savior.

I have had no relapses, and have a peace of mind that I have never had before; plus a good relationship with my wife, family, church, and the Lord. I could not have done it without the love and support of my wife, the Lord and his Church, and Evergreen.
