#87 KKK Terrorist Finds Christ – Tom Tarrants
Summary
I once lived a life defined by hate—a young man willing to do anything, even join the Ku Klux Klan and commit violent acts to ‘save’ America. My heart was hardened by extremist ideology, and I took part in bombings and terror campaigns with no remorse. Then, behind the walls of prison, through relentless reading of the gospel and the conviction of Scripture, my eyes were gradually opened to the truth. I got down on my knees, asked Jesus for mercy, and experienced a radical conversion that forever changed my life. Today, I stand as a living testimony that God can redeem even the most wretched souls. I now serve as a Christian leader, dedicated to spreading the gospel and proving that no one is beyond the reach of His grace.

In the 1960s, Tom Tarrants was a young man on a mission – to save America from Communism, Marxism, and desegregation. He was prepared to do anything, including joining the Ku Klux Klan, drive-by shootings, or even dying for his cause. Yet God had a far greater plan for this would-be revolutionary.
