Michigan

In 2000, our family situation made it necessary for us to move into my in-laws' home. They had been Adventists for a few years and I (Susan Brown) soon learned that my mother-in-law’s daily practice was to either study her Bible or watch the Three Angels Broadcasting Network (3ABN) on television. Since I moved into their home, I was curious about why Adventists have a unique lifestyle. I wondered why they do what they do, and live as they live.

Since both my mother-in-law and I are “stay at home” people, we had lots of time to discuss Adventist’s beliefs and watch 3ABN during the day. I enjoyed the seminars on 3ABN and became very interested in what Seventh-day Adventists believe.

I began attending the Adventist church and after a few months asked the pastor if I could be baptized. He studied with my husband (Carson Brown) and me, leading us to Christ and preparing us for baptism through an understanding of the Bible’s teachings for Christians.

It is true 3ABN taught me how important daily Bible study is, and how faith in God is the only answer. I am thankful I am now an active member of the Three Angels Fellowship, an Adventist church in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I praise God for the mission of 3ABN to help me and my husband grow spiritually, plus assisting to evangelize the world.
