Living in fear of God and battling depression and suicide James was living in complete darkness. Saying yes to a youth group would be the catalyst that brought him to understanding unconditional love and the light that lives within God's children. Love always wins, and James’ is a testament to this. Join us and hear just how James has overcome obstacles and found light in the dark.
- Grew up not knowing God the way he does now
- Spent much of his childhood avoiding go to hell- living a fear based faith
- Feeling unworthy, James was accepted into his youth group and began to feel Gods love
- James has navigated depression and suicide and it was witnessing goodness and watching believers walk out their faith that help him see light over darkness
- It's likely that those around you suffering from mental health issues, won't ask for help, so be sure to ask them if you can help
- Choosing to forgive his brother and former girlfriend, willing himself to love them both over the hurt he was navigating
- Moving to NC was one of the hardest decisions he made because life was “ok” in NY
- Even after making the decision to move to NC and pursue becoming a firefighter, he knew the only way to get where he wanted was to push through
- Put what you desire and the dreams you have in front of you- just as Abraham did (the original form of vision boards)
- Don’t quit, believe in your goal and it's worth it
- Be humble enough to ask people who have gone where you desire- learn from them
