Meet Yuji

Yuji believed in the truth that Jesus died for his sins the first time he visited a church and heard the gospel. He talks about experiencing a peace, not of this world, when he trusted in Christ. Yuji describes the remarkable way that God used Yuji’s experience of the Tohoku earthquake that hit Japan in 2011 to change Yuji’s purpose in life. Sitting in the warmth and shelter of his church in the initial aftermath of the earthquake, God showed Yuji how left out the Japanese people are from God’s love and protection, and how they don’t know that the key to heaven is Jesus. Yuji subsequently gave up his job and became a pastor to reach other people with the gospel for God.

Meet Stella

Stella is from Communist Romania and grew up in the Greek Orthodox tradition. By her teens, Stella decided that it was impossible for her to reach heaven and that God was angry and punishing her for her sins. Stella moved to the US in her twenties without any family or friends. She began searching for ways to reach God. Stella tried meditation, eastern religions, but could not attain what she was looking for. Then she was invited to a gospel-preaching church. Stella realized that it is Jesus Christ alone who can bring her to God. She trusted in Him for the removal of her sins. She talks about the peace she now has.

Meet Phil

Phil talks about how he was living for himself. He had no interest in spiritual things until a friend encouraged him to read the Bible. Reluctantly, Phil started doing Bible study with his friend. He talks about how scripture made sense to him. Phil believed that salvation comes through grace, and he understood it was all about what Jesus did for him – not what he could do for Jesus. Phil shares that he no longer lives for himself but puts Christ first, followed by his wife and son.

Meet Paul

Paul explains how he did not grow up in a Christian home in the UK, and had no spiritual interests. He experienced a lot of emotional pain as a teenager because his brother got very sick and his father suffered from a terminal illness during Paul’s teenage years. Paul began a two-year hunt for God following a conversation with a Buddhist. He spent time comparing the different world religions, but in the end, concluded that Jesus was really God. In time, Paul understood he needed to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Paul is now a pastor in Sydney, Australia. In this interview, he also shares some thoughts from pastoral life.

Meet Joe

Joe came from a strong Catholic background. He had a fear of God, went to confession many times, but felt so hopeless because of failing God’s standards for living. Joe resigned himself to thinking he would go to hell when he died. Joe talks about getting in with the wrong crowd, all the while still thinking about God. In time, God used Joe’s wife to expose him to the truth of the gospel and Christ’s atoning death and finished work for his sins. Joe was rejected by his father for leaving the Catholic tradition to follow Christ. Having once been unsure about the phrase ‘born again’ – Joe now is happy to share that he is a born again Christian and Jesus Christ is number one in his life.
