PERSONAL STORIES

Our Testimony series continues with episode 5, in which church member Elliot interviews Ted, who tells an origin story that sounds like the plot of a hit movie and describes the time he spent living like a king in New York City. But something greater was going to happen. God never gave up on him and neither did his wife.

In episode 4, Elliot talks with Sermyer, who was attending AME services in South Carolina before he met his future wife in New York. She invited him to the church of Christ, where he heard a powerful message and soon knew he wanted to be baptized.

Sermyer’s story

Elliot talks with Peter in episode 3. At 19, Peter started studying the Bible and realized that some religious practices didn’t follow God’s word. He decided to find a church where Jesus is the cornerstone.

In our second episode, Elliot talks with Andre, who was baptized at 17 but realized he was being a “part-time Christian” at age 26. Listen to how God changed his life.

In the first episode, Elliot interviews our preacher, Brian, and we learn how 15 minutes changed his life forever.
