FROM PASTOR DOUG  Into His Light image one

The Scripture says, “The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light” (Matthew 4:16). 

I’m so grateful that despite the spiritual darkness intensifying worldwide, you’ve chosen to work alongside our loving Savior and Amazing Facts to bring the light of truth and hope to troubled hearts around the globe.

I pray that you’ll be inspired as you read these brief reports of the incredible ways God has blessed your sacrificial giving—along with the powerful story of Leon, who was rescued from deep darkness through God’s grace and an Amazing Facts app made possible by you. Thank you!

Into His Light 

Into His Light image one
While sounds of laughter, fighting, and rock music mingled and throbbed through the crowded room, Leon collapsed onto a couch, drunk.

But even through the mayhem, he heard something distinct, almost like a whisper: Follow Jesus.

“I think Jesus is talking to me!” he told his friends.

Laughing, one grabbed him by the neck and said, “We’re more Satan’s than anything!”

From an early age, Leon feared never-ending suffering for sinners—but he accepted it as his fate.Into His Light image two

By age 13, he’d become a drug addict.

And at that raucous party, he chose to have satanic symbols tattooed on his back, hoping to “seal the deal with Satan.”

But God wasn’t ready to give up on Leon.

And eventually, through your partnership with Amazing Facts, the Holy Spirit carried Leon through one of the darkest experiences of his life.


An Open Door

After Leon sobered up, he considered that whisper he’d heard.

“Jesus,” he prayed, “I’m not sure why You’d want me, but if You open the door, I’ll walk through it.”

Today, Leon still gets choked up thinking about God’s profound response.

He shares, “That very next day, doors opened for me to move out of that area.”

Leon jumped at the chance to begin a new life.

Eventually, he began cutting himself and even considered suicide.

He tried prescription medications, but he soon turned to alcohol, cocaine, and eventually meth in an effort to self-medicate.

“I was worse off than the first.

I hadn’t given Jesus my all,” Leon confesses, but “Jesus never gave up on me.”

After a serious overdose, Leon reached out in desperation. “Forgive me, God,” he cried.

Suddenly, he understood that if he’d just allow it, Jesus could displace the darkness in his heart.

“Yes, please!” Leon pleaded. “Take me whole, Jesus!” The next morning, he left for rehab.

An Open Door image twoDetox was excruciating. Tormented by hallucinations and withdrawal symptoms, Leon felt surrounded by dark, satanic influences.

But then he noticed the Roku TV remote.

Using it, he downloaded the Amazing Facts app.

Overjoyed, he watched truth-filled programs every chance he could throughout rehab.

“When I needed Him most, God came as an app,” Leon says.

“Thank you, Amazing Facts, for holding my hand through the darkest times.”  

And thank you, friend. Together, we can continue sharing God’s light with those trapped in darkness!
