Meet Gemma

Gemma is from Ireland but emigrated to the USA. She was sexually abused as a child and this deeply troubled her as an adult. She dismissed the Bible and Jesus and didn’t believe in God. She started searching for God in her thirties. God brought her to a place where she could understand she was a sinner in need of a Savior. Having placed her faith in Christ she no longer feels shame over her abuse and has been able to forgive her abuser.

Meet Lore

Lore describes some difficult things that happened to her growing up – her brother was tragically killed and her parents divorced. She felt lonely, but that loneliness was overcome when she joined a very welcoming church. She describes hearing the gospel at church but never really understood about Jesus, His death and her sin. Her deep sense of lack of peace came to a climax when she told her pastor (and employer) that she had doubts about God’s existence. Shortly thereafter she gave up her whole life and moved to another state just so she could sit in on a Bible study run by Jen Wilkin. There, reading Genesis 1:1, God revealed Himself to Lore and she believed the truth of the gospel. Over the next few months reading the book of Genesis, Lore came to a rich understanding of God and her own sin.

Meet Mark

Mark didn’t go to church growing up and he had no knowledge about God. Aged 19, he did a Google search to find out more about the spiritual questions he had. He also read the Bible and learned that Jesus died in his place to make him right with God. Mark believed the truth. Now he has peace with God, the certainty of going to heaven, and a new purpose for living.
