My mother believes much like John MacArthur, but I grew up a full fledged Arminian. I was grounded heavily in the Lord though (thankfully) and was surrounded by many in my childhood who put Christ first and formost.

I came to the reformed view once Arminianism and my human efforts exhausted and depressed me to a point that I cried out to God to show me what I was doing wrong.
