Chris — testimonyCONVERSION

Chris

I was a software engineer and startup guy who rejected Christianity as antiquated, then spent years trying every psychedelic, energy healer, Buddhist retreat, and New Age practice I could find, convinced I could engineer my way to enlightenment and heal my grief on my own terms.

Jessica — testimonyCONVERSION

Jessica

I was a master-level Reiki practitioner, yoga teacher trained in India, lived at a Buddhist center, and genuinely believed I was on a path of love and light, helping people and searching for truth. I thought I'd found it.

Steph — testimonyCONVERSION

Steph

I was a law student raised in chaos, addicted to opioids and alcohol since 14, deep in New Age and tarot, in a violent relationship, blacklisted by my family — raising myself, convinced I could fix everything on my own, but dead inside.

Jonathan — testimonyCONVERSION

Jonathan

I was a Buddhist from birth, a martial artist, a student of a witch doctor who taught me sorcery. I moved in spiritual gifts, people worshipped me as a reincarnated Buddha, and I was addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex, and pornography — broken, suicidal, and completely lost.

Ron — testimonyCONVERSION

Ron

I was a scrawny burnout hippie — Jewish by birth, Buddhist by practice, wannabe shaman — smoking two and a half packs a day, doing hallucinogenics, living on the road with a woman I had nothing in common with, and I couldn't hold a thought in a bucket.

Sarah — testimonyCONVERSION

Sarah

I was a devoted Buddhist raised in strict Buddhism, then turned to Hinduism and witchcraft, praying to many gods across Thailand, India, and Switzerland. I was self-focused, doing everything for myself. I was always searching — from childhood I knew something was missing — but I couldn't find the answer.

Christine — testimonyCONVERSION

Christine

I was a foster care kid who aged out of the system with a felony, no education, and a deep belief that I was a mistake. I fled my marriage, practiced Buddhism, and sought worth in all the wrong places. I was angry, broken, and terrified — and I didn't believe God existed.

Steve — testimonyNEAR-DEATH

Steve

I was a fervent Buddhist from age six, praying eight hours a day trying to reach nirvana. I came to college in California, fell in with bad friends, started doing drugs, and ended up attempting suicide after a demonic encounter convinced me to sacrifice my life.

Sean — testimonyCONVERSION

Sean

I was just a nasty, narcissistic person — pure hatred, pure evil. I was addicted to porn for 20 years, an alcoholic for over 10, doing every drug I could find, physically abusive to every girlfriend I had, and desperately trying to find love from all the wrong places because I didn't have my mother's or father's love.

AZ — testimonyCONVERSION

AZ

I was a drifter, a wanderer — lost and disillusioned my whole life, hiding behind gym and eastern mysticism, trying to transcend the physical realm and escape suffering. I had complex PTSD, multiple suicide attempts, and a psychiatrist told me I had no options left.

Smury — testimonyCONVERSION

Smury

I was a lawyer, very confident, very feminist, very dominating. I went through Hinduism, Sikism, Buddhism, and new age. I was deep into manifestation, chakras, third eye, soul ties — and I was attracting demonic. I thought my third eye was opening but I was demonically spiritual, not godly spiritual.

Christa — testimonyCONVERSION

Christa

I was a shamanic healer and love addict cobbling together an identity from tarot, spirit guides, and relationships with men. I was in pain all the time — like an open canker sore — and I was convinced I was working for the light while I was actually an agent of the enemy.
