Will instant gratification satisfy? Former drug dealer Antonio Gonzales speaks with Anh Le

Testimony of a former drug dealer.  In today's testimony we are going to talk about instant gratification, and if living a lifestyle of going for whatever feels good is really a good way to live or not. Now, our society is built upon instant gratification. Everything is about getting it, and getting it now. Which feels good at first, but is it really good for us? Well, today on our show, we will have Antonio Gonzales, who lived the party life and went for anything that would bring him that gratification. From parties, to drugs, to women, he lived the lifestyle of lasciviousness, and he is going to share the truth of living that kind of lifestyle. 

He wanted to take his own life, until Jesus. Wayne Friedt speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony, we are going to talk about a very serious subject, which is what goes on in the mind someone that wants to commit suicide? The reason why I want to talk about this because according to the world health organization, there are about 703,000 people a year that commit suicide around the world. It's not a pleasant subject to talk about, so listener discretion is advised. Have you ever wondered, what happens in the mind of someone who is contemplating suicide? Well, there are many reasons why someone commits suicide, But let me tell you this, all reasons are wrong, no matter how someone feels they should take their lives, it is always the wrong decision. To illustrate that, today, we will have a guest who was a criminal heading to prison, and he is going to open up about how he contemplated suicide and saw that there was no value to his life. Was going to spend all of his days locked up in prison, and so he would saw absolutely no value to his life. But today, he says that Jesus came into his life, saved him from a suicide attempt, and revealed his true purpose and calling, and his path was changed onto a good path. He is an older gentleman who talks about a story of his past, a life he almost terminated, and is going to warn us why not to do that no matter what.

Is self will power enough? Brandy Ventimiglia speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony we will be talking about whether or not self will power is enough to survive in this world, and if there is a better way than full self reliance. Today on our show, we will have Brandy Ventimiglia, who grew up in a non religious home where there was abuse, drugs, and partying, so she tried to be a super achiever to get herself into new stream of life. Until one day though she thought she arrived to success in life, she discovered something far more glorious that caught her by surprise. 

His past haunted him. Willie Cordova tells all with Anh Le

In today's testimony we will be talking about how we live our lives, that one day, we are going to be looking back, and all the bad things we have done will come up to our minds, our consciousness, and there will be a longing to resolve those past issues, but because they are in the past, they are unsolvable. What do we do in that instance? What do we do when we realize, my gosh, my life has a trail of hurting others, and destroying others lives. What can we do with that? Today we will have Willie Cordova, who today is a pastor, but in his past, he got addicted to drugs, and helped others to get addicted to them as well, and lived a life of doing whatever felt good to him. He is an older gentleman today, and will tell us the truth of what happens when the party life is over, and that is left behind, is guilt and remorse. 

She couldn't hide from her father's sexual abuse. Alicia Nicolas speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony, we are going to talk about the devastation molestation can cause to a child, and how it may be more present in our society than someone might think. Do you think it is some rarely that happens? According to National Center for Victims of Crime, 1 in 5 girls are victims of sexual abuse. What happens in the day and a life of one who is going through such an atrocity? that is exactly what we are going to talk about. With us, we will have Alicia Nicolas, who was abused by her own father all throughout her childhood, and it got very severe. She is going to tell us all that happened, and how she overcame the trauma that was incurred from her life.

Drugs were his love and enemy. Joshua Zatkoff speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony we are going to talk about how drug addiction has a romanticism about it, where people literally fall in love with the substance, almost like it is a person, or a being, and that God can literally deliver someone from this unhealthy love affair with a substance. And with us, we will have Joshua Zatkoff, who describes his drug addictions like it was a love affair that would bring him comfort from all the pain of his past. Joshua got addicted to heroine, and it almost wrecked his future, but faith in God gave him the power to get true deliverance.

From prostitute to Christian. Samantha Doucette shares all with Anh Le

In today's testimony we are going to talk about the concept of rebellion in our culture and world today. Rebellion, at least in America, is something that is celebrated, it is part of understanding freedom from the rules or oppression from another. Now yes, America was birthed from rebellion, so we celebrate that, but does that concept work in the home? We often see it as a normal healthy thing, but when does rebellion get out of control? Today, we will have Samantha Doucette, who grew up in a family with a lot of rules. She wanted to rebel and try something different in her life, and she became a prostitute. She is going to tell us how that went for her, as today, she has left that industry, and has become a Christian. 

He had the blackest of hearts. Former gang member Michael Ochotorena speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony we are going to talk about the realities of being a top gang leader, and what it does to the soul of man. I have heard some say that evil is a social construct, that there is no evil or good, just perspective. But today, we will have Michael Ochotorena who was a captain of a well known mexican gang, and he is going to tell us the truth of what happens to your soul when doing the things it requires to get to the top. But don't worry, today, you are hearing from a different Michael, where he has since repented and given his life over to Jesus Christ, and today he says, Jesus truly is the way. Let's listen to his story. Listener discretion is advised, the following things you are going to hear involve a lot of violence and disturbing events. 

Dying, he called out to God and he saw Jesus and heaven! Jordan Samuel tells all with Anh Le

In today's testimony we are going to talk about the idea of absolute truth. Is there one absolute truth? Or is truth simply Relative to one's owns subjective thoughts? There are some people who believe that there is one absolute truth, and that truth is objective, and not depending on anyone's subjective opinion. However, increasingly, people are leaning into the theory that truth is relative to ones subjective opinion, and that there is no real one truth, but that it is all based upon one's perception. And often, I hear many young people take to this with spiritual matters. Some choose to believe in a heaven, but not a hell, or some believe that nothing exists at all. But is that the right approach to create your own truths? Today we will have Jordan Samuel, who grew up Catholic, but then decided that he was above what he was being taught as a young man, and decided to live his life based upon his own truths that he created based upon how he saw things. Let's hear what happened when Jordan died, and then came back to life in this state of believing in relative truth.

The NFL changed his life. Fred Stokes tells all with Anh Le

In today's testimony, we will be talking about the good life as people call it, the dream of being drafted into the NFL where you are treated like a god. But will this lifestyle fulfill your every dream? Today we will have Fred Stokes, who had that life, lived it, and said that he learned that it isn't all what people think, and that a life as a committed Christian is more fulfilling compared to his life before where he would have temptation galore, as women would be throwing themselves at him, and after everything, he felt so unfulfilled.
