Summary: <p>Brad was an only child born to a single mom, Catholic, living in public housing. When Brad was in elementary school, both he and his mother chose the simple gospel of grace. Brad had heard it through The Wordless Book by Charles Spurgeon and accepted Jesus at a Bible Club. His mom prayed with a pastor’s wife and was immediately and miraculously healed from a cigarette addiction. At 14, Brad attended a Christian training program on a college campus to learn to teach the gospel in a Bible Club like he had learned it. But there, his older roommate sexually assaulted him several times. During college and after, feeling broken, Brad struggled with drinking and lived the gay lifestyle for about 10 years, questioning whether he was truly saved. Today, he said he clings to the promise in Acts 13:39 and by him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.</p>
