From the brink of suicide to a life transformed by divine intervention, Alan Adams reveals the raw reality of growing up in the grip of addiction, instability, and abandonment. His powerful testimony begins with a childhood marked by a drug-addicted household, a mother in prison, and a father who was rarely present, forcing young Alan to navigate a world where survival meant constantly adapting to new homes and schools.
The turning point came on a railroad trestle at age 13, when—ready to end his life—Alan heard a voice saying, "I love you, don't do it." That divine encounter literally saved his life and began his journey to faith. Throughout the conversation, Alan shares how coaches, youth pastors, and everyday people became unexpected lifelines, showing how God often works through ordinary individuals to reach those in crisis.
This deeply moving episode explores the challenges of breaking generational cycles, finding identity beyond childhood trauma, and learning to parent differently than how one was raised. Alan's story particularly resonates with listeners who've experienced similar struggles, offering hope that your darkest moments can become your most powerful testimony. The biblical story of Peter walking on water becomes a powerful metaphor for maintaining faith through life's storms—"The second you take your eyes off Him, you'll start to sink."
Whether you're currently walking through your own valley or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers profound insights into how God can transform pain into purpose. As Alan emphasizes, "What the devil meant for evil, God turned around for good." If you're feeling alone or surrounded by impossible circumstances, this testimony reminds you that God sees you, loves you, and has a purpose for every painful chapter of your story.
