I was thoroughly confused. And so, I'm making...I'm leaving out a lot of details. At the end of that 72 hour prayer, 72 hour fast 72 hour prayer I walked out of that church [and] with every step each step that I made, took another thing became clear. I said/thought, "Oh, I get it. I understand". And my understanding continued to increase rapidly and, so yeah, uh that was my conversion. Thoroughly confusing.
Warrior Richardson: I find it's best to explain it [my conversion] experientially rather than academically. I was playing the saxophone and I believed. You know, I really didn't trust God and I yielded because I was fighting God all my life. I was...It was obvious there is a God. It's obvious to every human being. There really is no such thing as an atheist. There's people who believe there's a God and that's everybody; But there are people who acknowledge that there is a God and there are people who deny that there is a God. But there's no such thing as an atheist. And so I was denying God and fighting God and I relaxed. I stopped fighting God. I yielded to God. I rested in God. I trusted God. So, that's what it was; because I remember the moment I got saved even the tone of my saxophone changed. So, I stopped fighting God and I rested in him and he saved me.
Dr. Monica Larson: Amen. And so, let me ask you this, 'cause I know God has truly transformed your life even past that point because he's given you the ability for supernatural things like learning Spanish fluently, learning software packages, creating a Christian comic book and animated series and creating Christian merchandise. You're writing a book. You provide graphic services. So, can you share a little bit about all the amazing things God has turned your life around and given you these opportunities and blessings and gifts that you share with the world that glorifies him. .
