A Faith-Revolution of Thought By Dr . Augie David
I came to the United States as an 18-year-old student in a college in New Hampshire in 1969 . Over my next two years in college , I found myself deeply troubled by an ever-growing heaviness from “ The Question ” welling up in my heart .
In India , I grew up in a culture of widespread poverty , sickness and disease . There were dominating needs , great suffering and constant unrest . Close to where I grew up was a small garbage dump , and I saw two small kids fighting with each other over discarded food one day . It was heartbreaking ! In college , my mind wandered among these memories , then to the wars , diseases , poverty and suffering happening all around the world . So much destruction . These thoughts gripped my heart , and I wanted answers .
