Host Chris sits down with Mr. Perry Malone for an inspiring, raw, and powerful testimony.

He recounts receiving a life sentence in federal prison after turning his back on God following an initial deliverance, and the subsequent 27 years he spent incarcerated. It was in prison where he rededicated his life, found God's calling, and learned to withstand the enemy's wiles. Perry shares his experiences as a suicide companion and how he was released via clemency granted by President Joe Biden. He closes by discussing his powerful book, How I Got Over, and his ministry, HIGO Ministries, Inc., which helps formerly incarcerated individuals and at-risk youth.
William Tidwell shares his powerful testimony of transformation. Growing up with a relentless desire for freedom, he details how he was lured into the grip of methamphetamine—a drug he calls the "main entrance to hell". Hear about the moment a desperate cry for help led him to the Home of Grace. He reveals how a spiritual encounter replaced the "counterfeit high" of drugs with the genuine love of the Holy Spirit , ultimately leading him to find sobriety, a career as a truck driver, and the family he prayed for.
Lee Ford grew up without Christ, finding himself trapped in a lifetime of searching and pain.

After a dark period culminating in having to put his own son out of the house due to addiction, Lee finally hit rock bottom. He describes the overwhelming spiritual pressure that led him to finally surrender at church, feeling the "weight of the world" instantly lift in a moment of true salvation and a "cleanest, freshest breath". Listen as Lee shares how he found unshakable faith, broke a lifelong stronghold on alcohol, and now leads his family and others into a relationship with the God who was walking with him all along
Levi Johnson shares his raw testimony on escaping the "silent master" of pornography and masturbation, an addiction that began in childhood and was rooted in deep-seated trauma and the feeling of "I’m not good enough". He discusses the devastating cost on his marriage, including performance issues on his wedding night.
The turning point came with his wife Katie's confrontation and their struggle with infertility, which fueled his commitment to break the stronghold. Levi details the extreme measures he took in his recovery, including using Ever Accountable software and locking down all technology , based on the principle of cutting off whatever causes him to sin. He celebrates the community he found at South Coast Recovery with Will Travis and the miracle of his son Emmett's birth, who is the "answered prayer". This is a story of surrender, uncompromising discipline, and finding true freedom through God and community.
Will Travis’s story is a raw and honest look at the battle that rages for our hearts. It is a powerful reminder that our deepest wounds and most profound failures do not disqualify us from a life of purpose. In fact, in the hands of a redeeming God, they become the very qualifications for a ministry of hope to others who are still lost in the same darkness. May his journey illuminate the path for your own and remind you that no one is ever too far gone for the reach of grace.
