In this episode of Words of Life, we continue our special series of testimonies recorded live at the Salvation Army’s Commissioning 2025 event. These powerful stories remind us how God works through ordinary people to bring hope, healing, and transformation.

You’ll hear from Cadets Aaron and Heather Simpson as they share how God used their relationship and the ministry of the Salvation Army to break chains of addiction, restore faith, and draw them closer to Him. Their journey highlights the power of community, perseverance in faith, and God’s ability to redeem even the most broken situations.

Key Takeaways:

  • How God can use relationships and mentors to guide us back to Him

  • The reality of addiction, brokenness, and the hope of freedom through Christ

  • Why persistence in inviting others to church and prayerfully walking alongside them matters

  • How personal testimonies can inspire faith and encourage others in their own journey
