Ray grew up believing in God, but without guidance, affirmation, or direction. From childhood trauma and addiction to selling drugs and chasing success, he tried to fill a void nothing could satisfy. At rock bottom, a desperate cry to God changed everything. This is a raw testimony of brokenness, surrender, and radical transformation through Jesus.
