Dr. Stephen Finney's truly inspirational story shows how one can overcome adversity through faith. His journey, marked by a profound spiritual awakening and overcoming addiction, is a testament to the power of Jesus Christ.
He grew up in an oxygen tent, lived as an outcast, died on a hospital table, saw an angel in the sky, became a drug‑addicted stripper riding with the Hells Angels… and then Jesus Christ pursued him with relentless love.
Doctor Stephen Phinney’s story is one of the most extraordinary testimonies you’ll ever hear — a journey from rejection, addiction, and near‑death to a life of identity, calling, and supernatural purpose.
In this episode, he shares:
•  the angelic encounter that marked him in fourth grade
•  the moment he died and saw his body from above
•  how Jesus chased him down through a popcorn‑stand evangelist
•  why he fell back into darkness — and how God pulled him out
•  the power of identity in Christ and the exchanged life
•  how he went from illiterate to discipling leaders around the world
If you’ve ever wondered whether God can redeem your story, this episode will shake you awake.
