Beniel — testimonyCONVERSION

Beniel

I was a world champion jiu-jitsu fighter who idolized winning above everything — I pushed away family, friends, and any thought of God because winning was my god. I had no desire for a wife, kids, or Christ.

Rodney — testimonyCONVERSION

Rodney

I was a little Black kid growing up in the streets, no father, looking up to drug dealers and OGs, trying to be the tough guy, the gangster. I was searching for identity, acceptance, and validation in all the wrong places — and I had a temper that could flip on a dime.

Kevin — testimonyCONVERSION

Kevin

I was a violent, angry Iranian Muslim in Sweden — high dyslexic, dysfunctional, always in trouble. My only dream was to grow up strong enough to destroy my father. Rage was my identity and my greatest comfort. I didn't believe love existed.

Dui — testimonyCONVERSION

Dui

I was a spiritual coach called Summer — a false identity I built from scratch — running women's circles, doing witchcraft, plant medicine, and channeling spirit guides, while hiding years of prostitution, rape, and shame so deep I pretended it never happened.

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.

Justin — testimonyCONVERSION

Justin

I was selling marijuana, handling guns, breaking into cars, drinking — all before 21. I was trying to make a name for myself in the streets because just being Justin, the son of my mother and father, didn't feel like enough.

Remy — testimonyCONVERSION

Remy

I was a Nigerian Muslim girl who never heard 'I love you' at home, felt rejected by my father and by men, tried to fill the hole with weed, alcohol, parties, and even a relationship with a woman — and still woke up crying, not knowing why.

Britney — testimonyCONVERSION

Britney

I was looking for love in all the wrong places. I was introduced to porn at 14, became very promiscuous, danced, did webcam, cheated on partners — I was ashamed of so much. I knew about Jesus but I didn't really know Jesus.

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.

James — testimonyCONVERSION

James

I was a porn addict, a drug addict, a pack-a-day smoker putting down a 12-pack a day, a failed husband, and a man who had built his whole life around getting people to accept him. I called myself an atheist but I was really just drowning in rejection.

Neil — testimonyCONVERSION

Neil

I was a bitter, cynical, selfish Jewish atheist. I had a 40-year pornography addiction, I was buying sex from women, lying to everyone, and stuffing it all down behind a mask. I didn't believe in God and I had no idea how to love anyone.

Chobby — testimonyCONVERSION

Chobby

I was a Triad branch leader — Chinese Mafia — recruited at 13, expelled from school, managing recruitment and territory by 15. I believed protection was love, and the gang gave me what my violent father never did. I was a member for life. That was who I was.
