Welcome, draw up a seat and be ready for a long yarn.
Mike, who posts here regularly, also says TWI saved his life by rescuing him from a life not unlike yours. I'm sure many others can say that too.
Your story is delightful. You were honorable with your WoW sister and didn't fall in or allow her to fall in with pregnancy/abortion "rules." I'm so pleased your kids have grown up to be great Christians.
With your Masters degree, I'm sure you'll be able to add much to our discussions here, especially in Doctrinal.
