For me it was a person. I was talking to a fellow student in a hall of Southern Seminary one day explaining to him my interest in the spirit filled life, as written of by the holiness writers. When I was finished, he said "that sounds like the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of theosis." After hearing this from him I was off to find out about this doctrine of theosis. This was clearly the catalyst for me.
