Pro Fighter Discovered He Couldn’t Earn His Way to Heaven

Beneil Dariush has won most of the mixed martial arts fights he’s entered. Beneil didn’t think he needed God for anything—until circumstances left him with nowhere else to turn.  When he decided to surrender his life to Jesus, Beneil wrestled with accepting that he couldn’t earn his way into heaven and that he had to rely completely on Jesus.   Listen as he talks about moving from Iran to the U.S., his career as an MMA fighter and becoming a faithful follower of Jesus on this episode of GPS: God. People. Stories.
