I was brought up from the beginning in a Christian Home; our church which we attended each week was the Salvation Army.
Our first Salvation Army, corps (cor), was in Swinton and then we went to one in Farnworth. I willingly went to the Salvation Army and grew up going to Sunday school, then joined the young people’s singing group, and later the brass band, and Songsters. I have to admit that I was not a very good singer, nor did I play a brass instrument very well.
For most of this, I was contented, and yet, with all this activity in the Salvation Army, I now realise, that the Bible in all its full glory was not presented. True, the Bible was believed on, and even read, yet brass bands, and songsters seemed to be the emphasis in the life of the Salvation Army.
When I was about 19 I left the Salvation Army I just drifted away, I started at college in Manchester, and in the holiday break became involved in a religious cult, a very silly thing.
I was involved in this religious cult only for a year or two and only on the periphery yet, now looking back I regret ever being involved in it.
