I was in 4th grade and had been taking a local church's Sunday School bus for a couple years when I finally raised my hand during an altar call and gave my life to Christ. They said the next thing to do was to tell people, so I went home and told my family I became a Christian. My dad said "Well then, live like it". He was not a believer, but that mocking challenge influenced me to really learn who Jesus was and to act like him. We moved 3 times in my middle and high school years and if that challenge had not happened, I may have drifted away. I'm now 57 and have raised 4 kids of my own. I have told them how grandpa challenged me and I challenge them in love to live the same way. Thanks for the opportunity to share this. Dad is gone now, but his influence lives on.
