I am 48 yrs old, living in Colorado Springs, CO - currently attending Freedom Church, with Dutch Sheets and Pastor Brett Costigan.

Born again at some point during my teen years, or before, I experienced my 1st "vision" from God sometime around 1981... a vision that I still remember clearly; a vision that has led me to believe that I will be alive when Jesus Christ returns at the Gathering Together (also sometimes known as the "Rapture").

1985, God was working to bring me to a fuller understanding of Him, and His Word. I became involved in a Christian, Biblical Research organization. I learned to "research" God's Word using Greek, Hebrew, and - to a lesser extent - Aramaic concordances, lexicons, and other study aids. I also began an extended period of time where God helped me learn about the spiritual manifestations of holy spirit - most especially speaking in tounges and the "revelation" manifestations: word of wisdom, word of knowledge, and discerning of spirits.

I became involved with learning about God and His Word while I served as a "Security Specialist" in the U.S. Air Force. God used that experience to help me understand how He worked within me - by way of the Christ in me , holy spirit. I had - literally - hundreds, if not thousands, of "lessons".

Over the years, the "lessons", and the dreams, and visions continued. I've "visited" the new heavens & earth 3 times, experienced the "Gathering Together" at least once, and have had other "visions" and/or dreams, and/or "revelation knowledge" that has re-affirmed my belief that I would be alive at the Gathering Together - meaning, of course, that we are, indeed, living in the "end times".

... and my journey continues...
