The Testimony of A Church
Cynthia Campbell I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior in Vacation Bible School when I was 10 years old. Most of my friends did too. While I was in my late thirties, I realized that I was not allowing Jesus to be the King of my life to be in control. I saw that I was still controlling my life! I was living my way, not God’s way and I felt I was just going through the motions, trying to…

Eddie’s Gift from God This is my testimony but I call it my gift from God. I was saved at the age of 9. I knew God was working in my heart. It was on Sunday morning and Brother Carlton had just finished the sermon. We started singing the invitation and I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest. I couldn’t stand still! So I stepped out and started going to the front to talk with…
The Testimony of a Church – Jasper
The Testimony of Jasper Milliken My parents always took me to Church. When I was twelve years old I knew that something was missing in my life. After talking with my Sunday School teacher and my parents I decided to give my life to Jesus. Brother Lashbrook was our preacher and I walked the aisle to the front of the Church one Sunday morning and he talked with me about the change in my life. At that time I had…

The Improbable God by Beau Jones Our family has experienced some incredible growth since we have been members of Highland Park and I wanted to share my testimony of both gratitude to everyone here and to praise God for his blessings. Many of you may recognize Melissa and I as the parents of our two sons Braden and Brody and our daughter Molly. Seven years ago, we arrived to Lenoir City heavy-hearted as we were both away from family and…
The Testimony of a Church – Jim
Jim – A Miracle from God It was December, 1991 when old athletic, painting and building injuries finally took their toll on my back. I was in constant pain and was diagnosed with a worn-out disc between the C-5 and C-6 vertebrae. An operation was performed and bone was taken from hip and a bone to bone fusion was performed. When I woke my first memory was “I am not hurting.” This surgery was a success until January, 1999 when…
The Testimony of a Church
Ed It was a sad time. The family, friends and acquaintances were gathered around the grave to say farewell to a brother in law. The cemetery was full of people standing and waiting for the service to begin. The problem was the preacher wasn’t there. Due to an unforeseen event, he would not be able to make it to the graveside service. A quick discussion was held. A decision was made. Ed would say the final words. Ed stepped…

Steve My Testimony – What Jesus has done for me. I was saved on Easter Day, 1979. I remember coming home from church and had gone to bed. Jesus called me to be his and I tearfully responded to Him saying I would give my life to Him. I was only seven years old at the time, so I don’t remember a huge change in my life. I went to church, obeyed my parents, read my Bible and prayed…
The Testimony of a Church
Doug My testimony is a personal story of God’s wonderful love and providential care. God saved me from the penalty of my sins when I was 10 years old. I’ll describe this at length later, but this experience is only a part (although a very important one) of the story. God always has, and always will love me. As His child, I can do nothing to make Him love me more or less than he does. He simply loves me.…
The Testimony of a Church
Your Story Howdy everyone! I hope you are all doing well and that you are working on your testimonies. I’ve received several and I hope that there are many more to come. I’ve told you before how the Lord asked me to accomplish this task and I will continue to work at it in ways that don’t seem like nagging (I hope!). For example, today I was reminded about this when I received an email from Our Daily Bread. They…

Cynthia My father’s name is Jim White and we were originally from Atlanta, Georgia but we moved several times while I was a child. It was when I was in the 8th grade that he purchased Jim White Chevrolet. He would take me to the Knoxville Rescue Mission at Christmas where I would read the Christmas story or maybe sing to all the homeless. He taught Sunday School and also sang in a quartet when he was young. Every…
Testimony of a Church
Hobert One Sunday evening at the age of 13, I decided to go to church, something I rarely did. I thought I would take my deck of playing cards (Which I always did whenever I went to church.) and a couple of my buddies would sit with me on the back seat and we would play cards. Then after church was over, we would talk with the girls as most of us boys were now girl crazy. When I got…
Testimony of a Church
Darlene Back in 1980 both my brother and sister were witnessing to me. I felt I was already a Christian. I couldn’t understand why they were telling me I was not going to heaven. The last time I visited my sister she told me she was in counseling and taking Prozac for depression because of marital problems. The very next day I got the news that she had taken her own life! I was devastated! I felt so guilty. I…
