Meet Jim

Jim grew up around Christianity but it seemed unimportant to him. He spent time in the army and has had a long career in the police force. Jim talks about his hard-heartedness and selfishness. He encountered Christian men but had misconceptions about them. Jim’s brother got seriously sick and became a Christian. At that point God turned Jim’s heart towards Him and Jim decided to become a Christian also. Jim talks about how straightforward it is to become a Christian, and if he had known the truth about Christianity, he would have become a Christian when he was much younger.

Meet Takashi and Naoko

Takashi grew up in a Christian home but he didn’t know what it meant to have a personal relationship with Jesus. As a married adult, he found it very hard to cope with the responsibilities of life – his job, child, and wife. Takashi shares that his anxiety was so bad he had suicidal thoughts. Naoko had very low self-esteem and emotional pain. She shares that she wasn’t good at communicating and was verbally abusive to her husband. Both Takashi and Naoko accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. They talk about the help and healing Jesus has brought into their hearts and married life.

Meet Laura

Laura describes her long battle with self-worth, which began in her childhood and resulted from over-hearing negative comments from her parents. She also shares she had an abortion as a teenager, and how that day traumatized her and she felt guilt and shame. Laura was divorced twice and struggled with the pressures of parenting her daughters. Laura describes leaving everything and riding away on her motorcycle. She stayed with a friend who invited her to church. There she heard the gospel and believed she could be forgiven and washed clean. She accepted Christ that day. Laura talks about how Christ has healed her pain and mended her relationships with her daughters. She is now married to her friend and she has had the opportunity to help young women who have experienced the same things as she did.
