    Mostly family, with a touch of curiosity to boot:

    - all added together with early adolescent rebellion against a parent, who was trying to make me go to church!

    At a rather impressionable age, I was introduced to the JW religion by a grandmother who had converted a year or two earlier.

    I think most will be born ins or very young, does the religion really grow much from new converts,doesn't seem so. Hope not!!! I came in at 5 when my mother joined.

    Idealism for me. Converted in my mid 20's from agnosticism. I wanted to find the best way of life and I found it with Jehovah and His people.

    Looking back on my life I can see that I was conceived to serve Jehovah and I wouldn't want it any other way.
