What can God do with the darkest moments of your life?
In this powerful episode of the “Life Stories” series, James shares his raw and honest testimony about how God met him in the middle of crisis, doubt, and brokenness — and gave him a new beginning.
James talks about growing up as a pastor’s kid, struggling with identity, drifting into unhealthy habits in the rugby culture, and entering a relationship that left him isolated and deeply lost. At his lowest point, filled with despair, he whispered a simple prayer — and God responded.
His journey back to faith wasn’t a dramatic overnight change, but a steady, hopeful process. Through his job as a firefighter, his marriage to Laurel, and his new life in Germany, James has seen again and again that God is faithful, present, and always working — even when we can’t see it yet.
This story is a reminder: God still speaks, still saves, and still restores — especially in the moments we least expect it.
