Episode 1 shared the testimony of Grayson Boucher (aka "The Professor), telling the story of how God used basketball, a funeral, and a sermon by NBA star Mark Jackson to lead him to Christianity.
 
In this bonus episode Grayson talks about the role his brother played in his testimony (and vice versa), the furthest he ever felt from God, the importance of personal study in developing his faith, and how he almost got beat up in China for throwing a ball off of someone's head  during a game. 
 
This episode also contains a preview of the next full length episode which will tell the story of how and why Jacob Espinoza became a Christian. If you like hip hop and/or leadership, you don't want to miss it! 

At the end of this episode you'll hear our first ever user submitted testimony. It is a powerful story of God moving Nicole Wangler into a relationship with him and away from fear one step at a time. Those steps include a new friendship,  a retreat, going to church, and the encouragement of her uncle. Make sure to stay to the end to hear the powerful story of how and why Nicole became a Christian.

Grayson Boucher (aka "The Professor) is an international basketball star. He has 6.26 million subscribers on Youtube and 3.7 million followers on Instagram. His rise to fame started with the And 1 Mixtape Tour and was expanded by the viral Youtube series he created called "Spiderman Basketball." The entirety of Grayson's life has been influenced by basketball and it is no wonder that God used it to bring Grayson to faith in Jesus.

 Way back in pre-school Grayson heard stories about Jesus, but thought they were just like fables about Santa Claus. This is the the story of how God used basketball, the death of his best friend, and a sermon preached by NBA legend Mark Jackson to convince Grayson that Jesus was real and how that conviction changed his life and career forever.

This is Chad Harms, the host of Testimony.  I'm a huge fan of podcasts. For years I've enjoyed listening to shows in many genres, but my favorite all have one thing in common: They tell great stories. As a Christian I don't think there is any better story than when someone's life is changed by coming to faith in Jesus. For a long time I have dreamed of producing a podcast that told these stories in a compelling and interesting way.  Thankfully, I am finally ready to embark on that endeavor.

One of the first podcasts I ever listened to is called "How I Built This." It is "a podcast about innovators, entrepreneurs, idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built." That podcast has inspired much of what I hope to do here. Instead of stories about the companies people I have built though, I am telling the stories of how God has built people's lives.

More specifically, Testimony is a podcast telling the stories of how and why people became Christians. It also offers glimpses into how people's decisions to follow Jesus has changed their lives. My hope in producing this is that it will compel some to give their lives to Jesus and many to share their own story with others.

With that in mind I hope that you will listen to the trailer and subscribe. The first episode launches on January 4th. In it you'll hear the story of how God used basketball and a funeral to convince Grayson Boucher (better known as "The Professor") that Jesus was real and how that conviction changed his life and career forever.

Thanks for listening,

Chad Harms
