I was born May 28, 1971 in Norfolk, Va. I started drawing at the age of 3 and wanted to design videogames ever since my introduction to Pac-Man. Sadly about the same time I was introduced to pornography and grew up with a very distorted view of women and sex.
I became interested in astrology and in my teenage years started experimenting with the occult, meditation, and self-made subliminal tapes in search of the power of the mind. I became obsessed with the art and music of myself and others, making them and myself an idol. During all this time I believed myself to be a Christian because I believed in God and prayed to Jesus.
In my senior year of high school, when my sexual perversions started to expand beyond the realm I thought they were confined to, I saw my need for the kind of change only God was capable of.
It was in my bedroom when I prayed "the sinner's prayer."
"God, I believe in my heart that you raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that You, Jesus, are my Lord. I can't quit my sins without you, but if You'll heal me, I'll serve You."
I did not just pray a prayer, I repented of my sins.
About an hour or so later as I stepped from my parents' kitchen over the threshold of my bedroom door, I had a revelation: "You are a new creature. You don't have to be ashamed anymore. Everything you have ever done, that you hoped no one would ever find out, has been forgotten."
