Your Story, His Glory!

Jeanne Roberson knows what it feels like to believe you’ve gone too far for God to ever want you back. Groomed, manipulated, and trafficked into the adult entertainment industry at 17, her life spiraled into addiction, exploitation, emotional and physical abuse, post-abortion guilt, and deep spiritual warfare. For years she believed her past defined her and her mistakes disqualified her.

But God met her in the darkest places.

In this episode, Jeanne shares her journey from being trapped in an identity built on survival to discovering the Savior who offered her freedom, forgiveness, and a new name. If you’ve ever wondered, “Would God still want someone like me?” — this conversation is for you.

Because the answer is yes. He does. And Jeanne is living proof.

Your Story, His Glory!

He was raised in a devout Orthodox Jewish home where reverence for God was expected, but the grace of Jesus was unknown. As a child, he battled dyslexia, humiliation, and violence—pain that hardened into anger and shaped him into a professional fighter and, eventually, a committed atheist.

But even in the ring, God was pursuing him.

Through a series of unexpected encounters, conversations, and moments he couldn’t logically explain away, he came face-to-face with a truth he never imagined accepting: Jesus is the promised Messiah… and the Son of God.

This testimony is raw, thought-provoking, and deeply moving. It reveals how God redeems not just a person’s past, but their mind, identity, and purpose.

Today, despite once struggling to read, he now teaches, writes, and speaks so others can discover the same truth and life-changing grace that transformed him from a fighter… into a servant of Christ.

If you’ve ever wrestled with faith, logic, Scripture, or suffering, this episode will shake you—and strengthen you.

Your Story, His Glory!

Santa Jones carried wounds no child should ever face—abuse, betrayal, and a stolen childhood marked by silence and fear. Moving from place to place, she longed for safety but instead found herself mistreated, manipulated, and controlled by those who were supposed to protect her. The pain followed her into adulthood through hidden pregnancies, stripping to survive, and years of carrying shame that never belonged to her.

But through every dark moment, God never let go of her story.

In this courageous testimony, Santa shares how healing began—slowly, gently, and powerfully—as God restored the pieces of a heart that had been broken since childhood. Her journey reveals a strength she didn’t know she had and a hope she never expected to find.

Her story is a tender reminder that even the deepest wounds can be healed, and that no one is beyond the reach of God’s love and restoration.
