This is one of the most radical and terrifying Christian transformations I have ever heard. Steve Benton was a very angry man, who brutally beat people up and showed no mercy. A life once plagued with drugs, alcohol, kidnapping, stabbings and near death experiences, was forever changed by a radical and terrifying encounter, that opened the door to God’s LOVE.

How did you meet Steven?
He sat a my table at a 3-day Men’s retreat called “Lighthouse via De Cristo”. He shared his story for the first time, in front of the group and while he was speaking I knew I was supposed to tell his story. While I was working on his story, I got the idea for TheGODStories.com.
What an amazing story! God saved him from death twice and it took cleansing by fire (literally) to capture his heart and mind. This story is like one you might read about in the scriptures..miraculous, dramatic, unbelievable. I have no doubt there are many other stories out there similarly astonishing that just have not been captured and told. God has given you a purpose Michael and that is to tell these stories so we will all know the power and love of God.
