Personal Stories

Last year, I was unjustly fired from a job and had difficulty finding employment thereafter. A week after I lost my job, my car engine locked up and I was unable to get it to start. In addition, I had little savings after helping my mother to move. I felt so hopeless.

I was born into a Christian family but had no interest or love for the Lord. At the age of ten, while studying overseas with my sister, I developed a passion for football. I wanted to pursue it as a profession and was determined to fulfill my dream as a football player.

Being weak in my studies while being in the best class in my school put a lot of pressure on me.. I tried my best to study hard as I needed to do well to get into a good college. But since the beginning of the school term, I could not cope with all the subjects and kept failing in my class tests.

My family and I first heard you on television in the spring of 2009, when we were holidaying elsewhere in England, United Kingdom. We do not have cable or satellite TV so we were interested in watching the God channels when we rented a holiday home. We “happened” to turn the TV on to the right channel when you were just starting your program.

When I joined the real estate industry, I had a tough time trying to close deals. After 4 months, I still had zero revenue. Weekly sales meetings were tremendously stressful for me and I constantly felt hopeless and desperate.

My husband had a sales job for 10 years that required him to travel a lot. We didn’t see each other for weeks, sometimes months, at a time. Two years ago, his company went through some changes that ultimately resulted in us not having enough funds for food or lodging.

I started listening to Pastor Prince's messages 10 years ago and learned so much about God's goodness, kindness, grace, and love.

For quite some time, I had stopped reading the book, Unmerited Favor. But recently, I picked up the book again. I continued from where I left off and it happened to be where Pastor Prince wrote about how David defeated Goliath.

At the lowest point of my life—struggling to get into university, depressed and beating myself up—I cried out to God.

Pastor Prince, I started listening to your messages when a friend recommended them to me. I was skeptical at first, but they immediately resonated with my spirit. I couldn’t help but listen to them even more.

I became a Christian when God showed me that my life’s purpose was found in His Son, Jesus. From that moment on, I decided to get involved in ministry by serving as a youth overseer in my district.

During my secondary school days, I was extremely notorious and caused many problems to my peers, school and family. I was also involved in gangs and vile activities that harmed both my body and the people who cared about me.
