"I lost everything—but Jesus gave me everything new." In this powerful first episode of the All Things New Podcast, co-founder Aubrey Pridgen shares his raw testimony—from growing up in South Jackson and running a bar, to a tragic accident that landed him in jail, and ultimately, to his transformation through Christ that led him to become a chaplain at the very jail he once served time in.
Now leading All Things New Ministry, which reaches six correctional facilities and multiple Celebrate Recovery programs across Mississippi, Aubrey’s story embodies the message of Revelation 21:5 — “Behold, I am making all things new.”
