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.

Alene — testimonyCONVERSION

Alene

I was a proud, self-sufficient woman who had a baby at 16, survived two divorces, practiced Islam for seven years, then Santeria and Hinduism — trying everything to protect myself and find love, but I was just not alive.

Bree — testimonyCONVERSION

Bree

I was a deeply spiritual person — a pranic healer, yoga teacher, channeler, astral traveler — who genuinely loved God and thought I was serving him. I'd been in the New Age for 20 years and thought I had evolved beyond dogmatic Christianity.

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.

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.

Jade — testimonyCONVERSION

Jade

I was a functioning alcoholic doing cocaine, sleeping around, deep in the New Age — spirit guides, crystals, Reiki, ayahuasca — telling everyone meditation was amazing while my life was an absolute mess. I hated myself and didn't care if I died.

Ashley — testimonyCONVERSION

Ashley

I was a spiritual person who worshiped celebrities, binge drank, was promiscuous, and then traded all that for New Age healing — crystals, Reiki, law of attraction — still running in circles, still empty, still never actually healing anything.

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.

Alyssa — testimonyCONVERSION

Alyssa

I was a broken witch — depressed, anxious, plagued by nightmares and sleep paralysis, using crystals, tarot, manifesting, and every new age practice I could find, convinced I was born this way and that the Christian God didn't love me.

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.

Brian — testimonyCONVERSION

Brian

I thought Christianity was the dumbest thing ever — a crutch for people who needed to lie to themselves. I was selling drugs, dabbling in the occult, trying to open my third eye to fight the demons that had followed me since infancy. I was a psychonaut who thought he was smarter than religion.

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.
