My testimony takes on two forms.  I have written it out over time as is posted in links below.  Next to each link is a vocal recording version which elaborates and goes into more detail.

Often Christians must ask themselves why they believe in Christ.  The answer most often comes in debating philosophies.  To many including myself, it seems absurd to believe in a storybook written 2,000 years ago.  Especially one that is full of supernatural events the likes of which I have never witnessed.  My psychology degree taught me from a very secular point of view not to be naïve but to test the improvable using scientific methods.  I have written out the result of my test so that I will not forget what I have learned so far.  The result is a very long testimony.  With each chapter of results I have naturally become more and more "conditioned" to believe that there is a just and loving God, specifically Jesus Christ.  I know that I am only a product of my experiences. It is possible that others would not have the same results or conclusions.  There are many belief systems for one to consider with an open mind.  I could never confuse the results of my test with actual proof that God does exist.  The way I have tested it however, is the most proof that I have.  As a result, a Christian is who I am.
