Meet Jackie

Jackie was aware of Christianity from childhood but as an adult, she didn’t care about spiritual things and thought science answered it all. Through family, Jackie enrolled in a Bible study and God showed her how much she had to learn about Him. Jackie came to believe in Jesus and trusts that His death took away her sins. She now feels a happiness she never had, she has purpose for her life and she loves to read the Bible.

Meet Bob and his wife

Bob talks about starting a sexual life in his early teens, including a pornography habit. His sexual life led to the abortions of several babies. When Bob met his wife, they also ended up having an abortion. They describe the absolutely devastating effects of abortion on their lives. God took these broken individuals and showed them His forgiveness and love for them. They repented of their sins, and both accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior. They struggled to have children for several years into their marriage, but God has blessed them with two sons.

Meet Phil

Phil’s philosophy about life started out as ‘if you think its true, then it’s true’. But after someone challenged his thinking Phil became overwhelmingly restless searching for concrete truth and the answers to life. He wanted to know for sure if God existed at all, and if Jesus was God. Phil was drawn to go to church. From the pastor’s message, God gave Phil the faith to believe in Jesus Christ. Phil now has a personal relationship with Jesus and the certainty he longed for. Phil explains how the Bible can stand up to any scrutiny.

Mark talks about his focus on money and stuff. He had planned to commit a huge heist, but in God’s perfect timing he heard the gospel. God showed Mark the awfulness of Mark’s sin, but also the never failing love and mercy Christ has for him. Mark is thankful for the new life and family God has given to him.

Meet Becket

Becket shares how he thought being gay was his identity. Despite the Hollywood high-life, he lacked meaning and purpose. Becket felt drawn to Christianity even though he felt he could never have a place in it because of his homosexual identity. Becket was invited to a Bible-preaching church. There Jesus Christ revealed truth to Becket and radically transformed his life. He now understands homosexuality was not his true identity at all. He wants other people who are involved in a homosexual lifestyle to understand that God wants to have an eternal relationship with them too, and that being gay is not who they are.

Meet Emily

Emily talks about her homosexual lifestyle and reckless living. She had her own ideas about God. God opened Emily’s eyes by showing her truth in the Bible about her sinful choices.

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.

Meet Tomasz

Tomasz describes the devastating toll that his alcohol addiction took on his life: he lost several jobs, his marriage fell apart, he became homeless. Tomasz had moved from his native Poland to England. In desperation and hopelessness – he tried to kill himself several times. He had been brought up in a Communist country and had been an atheist all his life. Tomasz was homeless and found hospitality and a welcome at a church. He began to read about Jesus Christ and responded in belief to what Christ had done for him. He now has the joy of being a follower of Christ and is set free from his old ways.
