Anders got a second chance.

When Anders Myrli from Sweden/Gävle grew up, his father was on constant flight from the police. Anders went into deep depression and after awhile dropped out of upper secondary school. Then alcohol became his best friend and finally he was stuck in an addiction. During an attempt of burglary he realized that his life was a failure and therefore he decided to end it.

When Anders Myrli was in upper secondary school he went into deep depression. He dropped out of school, left his congregation and started to drink huge amounts of alcohol. Finally it had gone so far that he was stuck in an addiction. After three months had passed and he had not paid his rent nor been able to buy food he decided to commit a burglary in order to get hold of money.

It was after a visit to the taxation authority in Stockholm that he found his fathers name and address. After he had called his dad, they met at Sergelstorg in Stockholm .

Anders father told him the most amazing story he had ever heard about how he had decided to try out if God existed or not. He had prayed; “If you exist God I will do anything for you,” Nine months later he got the answer. “Will you go before people and confess to all of your crimes if I so wish?”
