Summary

Summary“I lost my best friend Shane two days before Christmas 1996, and grief plunged me into deep depression and substance abuse 😢. Feeling trapped, I ran away from home and found myself on the Pacific Highway, only to be lured into a house where I was tortured and left for dead 🔪. Lying in that cold creek, I felt my breath fading and knew I was going to hell—but when I cried out to Jesus, overwhelming peace and warmth flooded me, and I experienced pure joy in the darkness 🙏. Rescued by a praying helicopter pilot and life-saving surgeons, I emerged healed and called into ministry. Today, I share this testimony to show that even in our darkest moments, Jesus brings life, freedom, and purpose 🎉.”

After losing his best friend at a young age, Andrew plunged into a despairing cycle of depression and substance abuse. Overwhelmed by grief and suicidal thoughts, he fled from home, setting off on a perilous journey. Falling prey to dangerous men, Andrew was tortured and left for dead. Lying in a lake, fighting for his life in the face of death, he witnessed the most incredible miracle unfold.
