A Christian's Journey Told Through Short Stories
Embedded Files
The Stories of Faith | Godly Lessons YouTube channel is dedicated to mentoring believers in Jesus Christ.
From the time we become "saved" (also known as "born again"), we all have experiences that tell a story.
These stories reflect our shared faith and common journey.
Some of these stories will tell what others are going through in their Christian walk right now.
My sincere hope is that those facing personal struggles, deep-seated questions, and life-changing choices can find helpful insight there.
This Site is Built on Three Core Values of our Christian faith

We rest on this pillar of our faith; that our Savior and Redeemer will cleanse us from our past sinful lives:
Says the Lord,
Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow.

In the Old Testament, God gave us a promise from which we can all trust and rely upon:
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Jesus clearly defined how the Apostles should relate to one another. We believers are also included in this instruction:
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

Hi! My name is Jess, and this is my story
Here I am in November 2023, returning to the US after a year-and-a-half-long mission trip in Barangay Gusa, Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines.
On August 1, 2001, I sustained sobriety by the grace of God through the help of a Christian Hypnotherapist who, after attending only one session, guided me away from the addiction of alcohol.
With that self-destructive abuse behind me, I felt lost and wandered in life aimlessly for four months. With the demons deeply entrenched in my mind, crippleing me with the bondage of fear, shame, remorse, and relentless feelings of guilt, I began to pray diligently on my hands and knees to Jesus Christ for salvation.
Four months later, the power of the Holy Spirit came upon me, and from that time forward to today, I am free from the chains of the evil one!
I believe mentorship is a crucial form of ministry, which is why I created the Stories of Faith | Godly Lessons YouTube channel.
Through my videos, I share what I’ve learned from Men's Bible Study groups, my experiences as a mentor, and stories of the godly men who helped form my walk with our Lord and Savior.
I have the highest hope that this YouTube channel will encourage you on your journey.
In closing, I leave you with the following Psalm that describes my life changing experience:
1 I waited patiently for the Lord to help me,
and he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
3 He has given me a new song to sing,
a hymn of praise to our God.
-- Psalm 40 NLT --
~ In my story, God gets all the glory!
