Out of great emotional pain, God has been working in my life, redeeming me and setting me free from my past... I am telling my story because I want everyone to know that nothing can separate us from the love of God, forgiveness is possible, and there is mighty power in the Word. Whatever ditch you might be in, God can pull you up and out!

In 2006 when I was 40 years old, my beloved mother died. My reaction to my mother’s death was that I became so angry and upset with Jesus. How dare He take my beloved mother away from me and my family! I was so upset with Jesus that I stopped going to church. I told Jesus of my disgust for Him and that I no longer needed Him in my life.

The story I want to tell you began on Memorial Day of 2005. I had a massive heart attack. I was recuperating from a fusion on my right ankle and just felt yucky. I was thinking maybe I was just feeling the withdrawal from pain medicine, but the attack felt like a knife in my back. I was rushed to Virtua Hospital, where they saw that, indeed, I was having a heart attack.

Through my struggles with faith in high school and the beginning of college, I knew I had to come to the decision: Am I going to continue to please myself or am I going to pursue God’s plan for my life?

I grew up going to church, but we went because it was what “good people” do. Our church had one Bible, and it was read out loud after we communally said prayers and creeds. The Bible, to me, was distant and difficult to understand. I was told I was forgiven because I said the prayer everyone else did, but I never felt forgiven.

The church we attended was very legalistic, setting a high bar for its congregants, and I was unable to discern that some of what was being taught was not Biblical. When I found out that some of the leadership within the church were not being held to the same standards, I was disappointed and turned my back on the church and, more important, on Christ. It would be many years before my faith would be rekindled.

"I always believed there was a God. I knew of Jesus, but I didn’t have a real understanding of what Jesus did for me."

Rebecca Warren

Looking back, Rebecca recognizes that she still didn’t fully comprehend God’s grace. “My relationship with God was based on rules. Follow the rules, and do what you’re supposed to do, or you’ll be punished. This was my understanding of God, and it missed the mark entirely.

Dave recalls that serving wasn’t always a priority for him. Neither was church. “I was one of those people who just drove by the church, and you know I saw the building and I’m like, ‘Fellowship Alliance what?’ One day he decided to check it out. “I walked in and I thought I’d give it a try. That was about 20 years ago, and I’ve been going ever since.”
