Stories of Change | Jesus – a relationship with Him

Yuji (Japan)

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.
