Summary

My name is RJ and I want to share how I backslid from God and then experienced His amazing restoration. I was once drifting away from the Lord—feeling distant and numb despite being raised in church. I remember a powerful church service where Pastor Joey’s preaching on Psalm 1 stirred something deep within me. I recalled my painful childhood, my parents’ near-divorce, and the emptiness I felt as I drifted from God. In that moment, during an altar call, I broke down crying; I realized how desperately I needed God’s love and forgiveness. That breakthrough changed everything. God restored my heart, rekindled my calling, and set me on a path toward ministry. I left my job in fire service, embraced supernatural encounters, and even experienced a life-changing mission trip to Africa. Today, I lead Bible studies at a church-owned gym and minister to others, testifying that no matter how far we fall, Jesus’ restoration is real.
