Through a profound spiritual experience during the Easter season of 1996, God used Dannion Brinkley's book, "Saved by the Light", to save my family and bring us to Christ. In preparation for our family vacation that year from our western NY state home to Panama City,Florida,I went to my local drugstore to fill some presciptions that we would be needing. I rarely bought books, but that day while waiting in line,I found myself looking at the paperback rack near the register. "Saved by the Light" stood out from all the rest and I heard a small voice from within tell me to buy the book and read it out loud to my family as we traveled to Florida. I was also compelled to bring our Bible, a newly given gift that I had not read much,yet. As our trip began, I told my family I was going to read to them to help pass the time. As Dannion's story unfolded, my husband and children listened intently. Each time I offered to stop to give them a break, they insisted that I continue to read his story. His words and experiences captivated us and we were filled with great emotion. When we were in Tennessee,I heard the voice again and this time I was told to read the account of the Easter story from our Bible. Just as I finished reading,the children began to squeal in delight. "Look mommy, Jesus is with us!", they pointed to a car that came out of nowhere from several lanes of crowded traffic that came right up close behind us and the license plate read, JESUS. Suddenly, everywhere we looked we saw graffiti about Jesus, all of them full of reverence and love. We were truely awed. The children then begged me to read the rest of Dannion's book. I read to them for hours without ever looking up to see where we were. As I finished the ending, where he reveals God's plan to him in Alabama (I won't spoil the plot)my husband said, "Laurie, look where we are." I looked up and looked around. We were in Alabama! We looked at each other and I said, "Truely, this is an act of God." A few days later was Easter and we went to church. There, we accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Our lives have never been the same. I loaned out our copy of Brinkley's book to a Christian in our bible study group who was struggling with her faith. I asked her to pass it on to another if she felt it helped her and told her to ask that person to do the same. If it didn't help,I asked her to return it to me. It has been 4 years and the book has not been returned. As I write my testimony, which credits Brinkley's story of faith and obedience to God, as the turning point in our walk with Jesus, I've decided to read it again. Thanks to this site,where I came to buy his book again,I am able to tout his book to others. I pray it speaks to you as it did to this broken family four years ago, revealing God to you and His promise of life after death with Him, if you only except Him into your life as your Lord and Savior... Thankyou Dannion, may God's blessings continue to fall upon you in great abundance! The Buzzard Family
