We still take one step forward and two steps back sometimes. That's okay. But the general orientation of our life ought to be different. It ought to be much more pointed toward God as being the leader of my life. And so when you look at that kind of evidence, when you look at that moment I can go back to and say, yep, that's the moment,

Yeah, he was an atheist.

Yeah, he was an atheist.
Yeah, here's my hesitation on that. Because I know Howard's story and you're right. He was an atheist. He died physically, he was clinically dead and demons were mauling him. He said, I was like roadkill. And he called out to God, save me. And... This orb of light came and literally saved him. It was so profound. Then he eventually recovered from his clinical death.

And he not only renounced his atheism, he became a pastor. So he's a pastor today. That's how profound that was to him. But here's the problem.

We've all done things we knew they were wrong before we did them and we did them anyway.
