Laura — testimonyCONVERSION

Laura

I was 100% Jewish, a blank slate — I honestly didn't even know Jesus was a person. I believed in God but had no preconceived ideas, no agenda, no knowledge of the gospel whatsoever.

Family rejection
Jenna — testimonyCONVERSION

Jenna

I was probably the most hateful atheist — even after hearing from the spirit realm, having a foundation of God, I just completely rejected that. I was on drugs, on my own at 17, and I was so angry at the idea of God I couldn't stand it.

Trino — testimonyDEEPENING FAITH

Trino

I was an 18-year-old who had walked faithfully with God for six years, but when my brother was brutally murdered I was so overwhelmed with grief I turned to alcohol, marijuana, and crystal meth to numb the pain, and I wanted to hold an entire race accountable for the actions of one man.

Drug addictionAlcohol addictionBereavement / grief+3
Leticia — testimonyCONVERSION

Leticia

I was that spiritual girl — religion was not for me. I shunned the Bible, got tarot readings, did crystal meditations, and forever cycled through relationships getting heartbroken. I knew of God but I certainly didn't know him.

Father woundShameOccult involvement+3
Joel — testimonyDEEPENING FAITH

Joel

I grew up as a missionary kid who prayed a prayer at 5, surrendered my life to God at around 12, and went full-on into missions — but I was so convinced my story was going to end well that I didn't see the unforgiveness quietly destroying my marriage.

DivorceShameUnforgiveness+1
Richard — testimonyCONVERSION

Richard

I was a professional dancer raised in church who secretly wrestled with same-sex attraction and pornography addiction for over a decade. I felt rejected, abandoned, and too far gone — I even tried to fully come out and live the gay lifestyle because I saw no way out.

Father woundLGBTQ backgroundPornography+5
EJ — testimonyCONVERSION

EJ

I was a very dysfunctional young man getting involved in a lot of fights, violent activities, just doing whatever I wanted. I had no father, no future, no plan. I was cold as a stone, always angry, living from one marijuana high to the other, putting off my suicide every other day.

Father woundShameLoneliness / isolation+3
Talita — testimonyCONVERSION

Talita

I hated my family, I hated my country, I hated my life. I was just running away — drugs, parties, reckless relationships, absolutely fearless because I never really felt loved and had no boundaries. I was a mess.

Drug addictionAlcohol addictionDemonic oppression+7
Earnie — testimonyCONVERSION

Earnie

I was a big football player, class officer, chasing girls and cars — exposed to alcohol and pornography since age nine, a problem child with a guilty conscience I didn't know what to do with.

Spiritual warfare (post-conversion)Bereavement / grief
Patricia — testimonyDEEPENING FAITH

Patricia

I was a Catholic woman who knew God was calling me but kept making my own choices without asking him. I was fighting authority, not really communicating, not being honest with myself or others — and I kept getting more and more confused.

DivorceLoneliness / isolationShame+1
Muhammad — testimonyCONVERSION

Muhammad

I was a passionate, active Muslim — going to the mosque five times a day, doing jamat work, debating Christians, teaching Islam. I was arrogant, quick-tempered, and shouting. I was fatherless, growing up watching my mother cry, and I was longing for something I could not name.

Father woundDemonic oppressionSuicide attempt+2
Nathan — testimonyCONVERSION

Nathan

I was a drug dealer selling pounds of marijuana, cocaine, and MDMA, addicted to everything, going through the motions at church and yoga meetups, with no idea who I was. My whole life was a lie — nobody around me knew the real me.
