“I was a Buddhist but began going to the Lampang Church of the Nazarene because of the radio program Friend to Friend and because of a sign in front of the church that said, “Friend…the only word that matters.”
“When I first listened to the radio program I was afraid and not brave enough to call the church because I was sure it was a trick. I had been fooled by many people promising to be my friend only to take advantage of me. But at the church I learned there is no one who loves me as much as God does. Now I understand what peace is because Jesus is my friend.”
“Being a Christian isn’t about changing religions, it is about God changing our life. In the past I tried to convince people who had converted from Buddhism to Christianity to switch back. But now, I encourage everyone to listen to the radio program Friend to Friend from the Church of the Nazarene and to find Christ.”
