Meet Gary

Gary shares he had no spiritual interest. He did well in his career but suffered from anxiety – especially about dying. When questioned about it, he had no certainty he would go to heaven. God drew Gary to himself through a Bible study. Gary accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior and now has the certainty of going to heaven. Gary relies on God to help him through times when he feels anxious, and God has helped him re-organize his life priorities so he can be a better husband and father.

Meet Mark

Mark’s life revolved around his job as school principal. Then he got sick with leukemia. God had placed a man in Mark’s life who was able to pray for him and help him accept Jesus into his life. Mark talks about the instant change in his thinking and desires once he accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Mark feels a peace and a freedom because he no longer has to ‘run the show’. Mark asked Christ to help him with his cancer. Since his prayer, Mark started to see progressive improvement in his condition. He is now back at work, with a completely new set of priorities in life.

Meet Des

Des is 91 years old, and he’s been a Christian for 76 years. In this interview, he talks about being a teenager during WW2. He attended an evangelistic event and for several months afterward was haunted by a feeling of being unclean. Des’ father arranged a surprise meeting with the evangelist who spoke at the event and Des placed his faith in Christ. He talks about the radical change that occurred in his life at that time. Des was an Olympic-level athlete and he talks about how his training in athletics has carried over into his Christian life. He also shares that he spent too many hours working in his career. This put a strain on his marriage and ultimately led to a divorce. Des encourages husbands to love and care for their wives as Christ has intended.

Meet Cindy

Cindy explains how she was a very career-orientated woman, and after she got married she passionately pursued her career. She talks about the stresses on her marriage as a newlywed. Around this same time, she felt compelled to find spiritual answers. She had grown up in the Catholic tradition, but her husband had an evangelical background. She attended an evangelical church. Her spiritual curiosity grew, and she ended up at an evangelical conference in the US, where she believed the gospel and became a follower of Jesus Christ.

God has shown Cindy through the Bible His design for womanhood and the family. Over time God changed Cindy’s thinking about work and home life. Cindy shares how God did the unthinkable in her life by giving her the desire to become a stay at home mom and homeschool her children. Cindy experiences joy in her life because she knows she’s living out God’s will for her, rather than what the world defines as success in a woman’s life.
