Rev Paul Murphy was born in Rome, Italy (1953, came to this country when he was three). He was raised in an Irish-Catholic neighborhood in the Bronx, NYC. Although he was an alter boy in the church and attended regularly until age 14, he did not know Jesus Christ personally. From an early age he searched for Truth and the meaning of life. A college degree in philosophy brought him no closer to the truth. At the age of 29 he was confronted with the claims of Jesus Christ. Thinking them foolish he sought to refute Christianity with the teaching of secular philosophy. The Lord broke down the barriers of his heart and captivated his life. The Truth had found him! Now, like the apostle Paul, this Paul can say "to live is Christ".
