Making Life Changes

He wasn't even on the baptism list. 🕊️

30–40 years of drugs, alcohol, anger, and pride… then John Lopez saw his name, changed his clothes, and stepped into the water at Carol Vance Unit. When he came up — **two doves flew past.** A sign of the Holy Spirit sealing what God had just done.

In his own words: *"I've been living in bondage… I want happiness. I want joy. I want to be a kingdom man."*

This is what real change looks like. If God can reach a man behind prison walls, He can reach anyone. 🙌

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." — 2 Corinthians 5:17

**👇 Here's my question for you: Who in YOUR life is still waiting to step into the water? Tag them or share their first name below so we can pray for them by name.**

Start making life changes NOW. 🔥

🙏 POWERFUL PRISON BAPTISM & TESTIMONY

Meet Jesus Chavira Salazar — 30 years old, incarcerated since he was 19.

By 13 he was already selling drugs and in gang life.
At 19 he caught a capital murder charge and faced a life sentence.
He tried to turn to God… then backslid.
Two years ago he rededicated his life to Christ.

In this video he makes his public declaration:

“I feel like I got to put the old me to rest.”

Watch him get baptized and share what God is doing behind the walls.

If God can reach a man in prison, He can reach YOU.

🔥 This Friday Sept. 11 from 12-2pm CST and broadcast live from the UEAB Campus which is the Seventh‑day Adventist University of Eastern Africa, Baraton, a Christian institution in Kenya dedicated to holistic education that blends academics, faith, and service.

From Darkness to Purpose. From Prison to Purpose.

I’m sitting down with Chat & Chew for a real, heartfelt conversation — no filters, no fluff.

You’ll hear the truth about:
👉 Growing up around organized crime in Dallas–Fort Worth

👉 Living a double life as an honor student and a drug dealer

👉 Sentenced to 19 years in prison — and how that became the place where my life took a radical turn

👉 What God is still doing through Making Life Changes Ministries

This Friday we’re getting real about the desperate ways young people chase money — scams, deception, fraud, and other risky shortcuts — and the biblical, practical path to real success without losing yourself.

What if Luke 15 is present truth — about the day a sinner comes to himself, a Father who still runs, and a homecoming that leads to real life change?

This Sabbath I’m sharing a message close to my heart:

When a Criminal Came to Himself
📖 Luke 15:17 (NKJV)

I didn’t learn this chapter in a classroom.
I learned it in a place most people never see and by God’s grace it helped lead me all the way into present truth, including the seventh-day Sabbath.

As Seventh-day Adventists, we don’t gather for Sunday worship.
We keep the Sabbath of the Lord — the seventh day, Saturday — just as Scripture teaches from Creation through the commandments (Genesis 2:2–3; Exodus 20:8–11).

You’re invited to worship with us this Sabbath.
Bring your family. Bring a friend. Stay for fellowship potluck.

📍 Pearland International Church
3901 Bellini Road · Manvel, TX 77578

🗓️ Sabbath · Saturday, August 15
🕘 Sabbath School — 9:30 AM
🕚 Divine Worship — 11:00 AM
🍽️ Fellowship Potluck after service

Come curious. Leave changed.
Who will you invite to keep Sabbath with you? 👇

My friend Greg used Ai to make a country song about the Sabbath. It's really a great song to share with our Sunday keeping family and friends. Check out his channel on YouTube

Many people talk about the Lost Tribes of Israel… but few understand how their story connects directly to the final events before Jesus returns.

In this new video, I break down what Scripture actually says — and how these ancient identities relate to salvation, judgment, and the choices we make today.

If you’ve ever wondered who God counts as His people in the last days, this message will open your eyes.
