Lonnie's Childhood Woes

As a child, Lonnie's learning disability made him an easy target for ridicule by his teachers, classmates, and even family members. Alongside bullying, he has also faced poverty and abuse as child, making his life seem unbearable. As a young man with only a tiny bit of hope, he suffered from depression and eventually attempted suicide.

A Spiritual Transformation

When Lonnie found Jesus Christ and welcomed Him in his life, he discovered the hope and acceptance that he had been longing for. His once miserable life transformed into a testimony of God's redemption and grace. Lonnie explained that God gave him the courage to believe that he could accomplish whatever he sets his heart and mind into. Through the support of a few teachers and counselors, Lonnie was able to achieve academic success and go on with life, breaking the vicious cycle of poverty and hopelessness through the Lord's inspiring words.
