    Sandy Bond: Grieving Alone With a Jesus I Had Never Really Met (Testimony) | EP #78 (Part 1)

    Sandy Bond was still a little girl when she learned how quickly everything can be taken away — and by the time she was a teenager, grief had already reshaped who she was. In Part 1 of her testimony, Sandy opens up about the losses that marked her childhood, the walls she built to survive them, and a season years into her marriage that had her wanting to walk away. In the middle of her lowest moment, something happened that she still can't fully explain — a moment so perfectly timed, the only possible answer, is God. This is a story about what's still standing when everything else falls apart. ▶ Pt 2 coming out 8/24/26_________Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperienceSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperienceX: https://x.com/JesusXperienceTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.expInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience_________LIKE.

    David Ayala: What It Cost Me to Come Home (Testimony) | EP #77 (Pt 3)

    The more David grew in his walk, the more there was for him to do For three years he served out of love. Somewhere in the fourth it stopped being ministry and started being work, but he kept saying yes anyway. By the time he walked out the door, he'd convinced himself God had told him to. This is the part of a testimony nobody tells. ▶ Pt 1 https://open.spotify.com/episode/3HINaL3iTA0vXt3aYdDL2D?si=38kI_I3NTKWmJGCAEcyCgg ▶ Pt 2 https://open.spotify.com/episode/5I0ddA0BBV4o7wLClyrKxW?si=lP_KF7KnTG68KF2UV2RC-Q _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    David Ayala: The Night I Finally Asked If He Was Real, and He Answered (Testimony) | EP #76 (Pt 2)

    Banned from every school in his district, David had one door left — and it closed too. He was, they said, a threat to their children. His mother was ready to move them into a converted warehouse to pay for a school that had already turned him away, and she was still praying about it when the phone rang again. ▶ Pt 1 https://open.spotify.com/episode/3HINaL3iTA0vXt3aYdDL2D?si=38kI_I3NTKWmJGCAEcyCgg ▶ Pt 3 https://open.spotify.com/episode/1HcSvoSj9d1oTBz3QoSy5n?si=XulgKCfPQEiznYOgcxd7yg _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    David Ayala: A Missing Father, a Stolen Gun, and a Mother's Arms (Testimony) | EP #75 (Pt 1)

    David Ayala grew up in Houston's Fifth Ward, in a home where church stopped when he was six and the arguing didn't. By twelve he was in a detention center in an orange jumpsuit, bracing for exactly what his mother would say when she came. She said something else entirely. ▶ Pt 2 https://open.spotify.com/episode/5I0ddA0BBV4o7wLClyrKxW?si=lP_KF7KnTG68KF2UV2RC-Q ▶ Pt 3 https://open.spotify.com/episode/1HcSvoSj9d1oTBz3QoSy5n?si=xdiRMv2YSryvA32TwIZR9g _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    Joseph Caillet: A Messy Walk, a Faithful God, and No Coincidences (Testimony) | EP #74 (Pt 3)

    Joseph Caillet finally had everything he'd spent a lifetime chasing — the badge, the deployment, the purpose. What he didn't know was that the hardest nights of his life were still ahead, and no amount of training could carry him through them. In Part 3 of Joseph's testimony, he shares honestly about the night he felt the most helpless he's ever been, the losses that broke him, and the failures he was too ashamed to bring into church. But God wasn't finished with Joseph — and the man who once demanded "why are you doing this to me?" has become someone who plants seeds of the gospel in the most unexpected place of all. This is a story about a God who never wastes a single chapter — and the freedom that comes when "why me" finally becomes "lead the way." _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    Joseph Caillet: The Night the Good News Finally Made Sense (Testimony) | EP #73 (Pt 2)

    In Part 2 of Joseph's testimony, he shares honestly about the two men who wouldn't let him quit, the question that flipped a switch he never knew was there, and the stumbles that followed — because seeing the truth and living it are two very different journeys. And all the while, God keeps working behind the scenes, lining up the very doors Joseph had stopped knocking on. This is a story about the moment grace finally makes sense — and the God who was patient enough to wait for it. Joseph Caillet shares his testimony of hearing the good news for the first time — a soldier's story of grace over religion, God's perfect timing, and the long road from empty ritual to a real relationship with Jesus, on The Real Jesus Experience. _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    Joseph Caillet: When All I Wanted, Was to Serve (Testimony) | EP #72 (Pt 1)

    Joseph Caillet always felt a pull toward something bigger than himself — a call to serve, to protect, to become the kind of man he'd only ever seen in other people's homes. But the faith he grew up with never felt personal, and no matter how hard he chased his purpose, the doors kept closing. In Part 1 of Joseph's testimony, he shares honestly about the fathers who shaped him — for better and for worse — the dream that was taken from him just as he reached for it, and the long, aimless years that followed. But just when he'd made peace with a life without direction, God reopens a door Joseph had given up on — though not at all the way he expected. This is a story about what God is doing in the waiting, even when every door seems closed and the timing makes no sense at all. _________ Listen NOW for new episodes of the Real Jesus Experience Podcast🎙: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealJesusExperience Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3JuwyI6paw9T4o0ePzKVzj?si=4f9fe0390404463b Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-real-jesus-experience/id1752479121 Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6527259 Follow/Connect: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealJesusExperience X: https://x.com/JesusXperience TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the.real.jesus.exp Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_real_jesus_experience/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@the_real_jesus_experience _________ LIKE.

    Lindsay Angelo: One Week, One Life, and a God Who Was in Every Moment (Testimony) | EP #71 (Pt 2)

    Lindsay and Jared Angelo walked into the hardest week of their lives not knowing how much they would need what God was about to do in them.In Part 2 of Lindsay's testimony, she walks through the unthinkable — the decisions, the waiting, and the grief that followed. But woven through every moment is the unmistakable presence of a God who was never absent, even when He felt impossible to find. This is a story about what happens when loss strips everything away — and leaves only Jesus standing._________ Shae's Sunshine 3rd Annual Shae's Workout | July 11th, 2026Shae Manley Angelo was born on July 11, 2023 — a day full of joy and snuggles — before his family learned he had a rare condition that would take him to heaven far too soon. In the wake of that loss, his mother Lindsay founded Shae's Sunshine: a ministry rooted in the belief that even the briefest lives carry eternal purpose, and that God calls us to spread the good in the middle of the hard.Every year on Shae's birthday, families gather to move together, celebrate life, and remind one another that joy can still be found when we walk with the Lord.This July 11th marks the 3rd annual Shae's Workout — and for the first time, they're inviting communities across the nation to join in.
