In this powerful and deeply personal video, JD and Garth share their own journey of battling suicidal thoughts and finding hope and strength through their faith in Jesus Christ.
JD also talks about how he's used the power of weightlifting to overcome the pain of being abused at a young age, and how he's turned weightlifting into a passion that he's beaten countless records with.
This video is not only a testament to the power of faith and resilience but also a message of hope for anyone who may be struggling with similar challenges.
