“It’s better to be broken than crushed.”
Sameed Osman has held that reference to Matthew 21:44 through times of true brokenness, like when he gave up his old life as a Muslim and ended up on the street when he converted to Christianity.
Today, Eric Scovill sits down with Sameed to explore questions like identity, the risk and reward of following Jesus, and the meaning of “To live is Christ, to die is gain.”
Sameed’s testimony is a testament to the miracles and peace that come from surrendering one's will to God and following Him. Prepare to be inspired by Sameed's journey and discover how living fully for Christ can lead to unexpected blessings and a life filled with purpose and adventure.
