We talk to our friend Pavel Lavrentiev today about his testimony of growing up in the church and then living life as a prodigal son, before Jesus led him towards the path of redemption. Pavel also tells us stories of his encounters with different people as he's shared the love of Christ with them, and even some of the wild stuff that ensued as a result!
