In this short personal testimony, the speaker recounts his transformation from a self‑focused, pleasure‑seeking lifestyle to a faith‑centered life in Christ. He describes an emotional breakthrough while alone in a college fraternity house, where worship songs such as “Take Me to the King” and “For Your Glory” moved him to tears and revealed his brokenness. Although his external habits lagged behind his inner change, he eventually realized that God’s love is unconditional and not based on his upbringing or performance. This insight prompted him to pursue a deeper relationship with God, culminating in a pilgrimage to Israel around 2018‑2019.

Chapters

How I came to Jesus. My life used to be all about me. It used to be all about enjoyment, what I wanted to do, what I wanted to accomplish, what I wanted to become. And I chased myself, I chased my heart, I chased my desires until I came to the end of myself and realized that there's not gold at the end of that rainbow, it's just a grave. I remember very clearly and vividly one day upstairs in the frat house in college, I started crying out to God and I couldn't tell you why, I just placed a worship music and just began to lament and to see how broken I really was. I would listen to songs like "Take Me to the King" and "For Your Glory," and that moment my heart started to change, but my lifestyle didn't really catch up to my heart change, and I still lived worldly, but something shifted. Fast forward to some time, I realized that I didn't want to live for myself anymore, and I started to realize that the God that I was running away from really wanted a relationship with me, not a relationship with me because I grew up in a church. God didn't want a relationship with me because of who my parents were. He wanted a relationship with me because he loved me. And the moment that I started to realize that God's love is the only reason that he wants to know us and want us to know him, there's no strings attached to it. There's no conditional clause or statements. I started to seek that love, and that took me in 2018— 2019, forgive me— to Israel.
