From Drug Addiction to Pastoral Ministry

May 12, 2018 by Joshua Jenkins Leave a Comment

We don’t typically post testimonies on Rags for Riches. However, an exception had to be made. Recently our dear brother and friend to Rags for Riches wrote out a bit of his testimony. It was particularly moving to me, being that I had no idea about his past. Though every Christian has a “rags to riches” story – our rags of sin for Christ’s riches of righteousness – Brad’s story is also a visual illustration of the spiritual reality that happens in all converts to Christ. Brad would be the first to tell you: his story is not about him, it is about the glory of God in saving sinners through Christ and the power of the gospel. That is why we are linking to it on Rags – so we can all be reminded that the gospel still works, the Spirit still has power, and the blood still washes clean. Modernity can’t change that, and the devil can’t stop it. Soli Deo Gloria.
