Hi My Name is Major Fyffe:

I am from Somerset, Kentucky, I started drinking and smoking pot when I was 11 years old. My dad drink really bad, he never beat me or anything like that but the words he would say to me and the names he would call me really hurt deep. Than something's happen to me when I was kid that really messed me up, so I guess that's why I did the drugs and drink to forget. This went on for many years and when I was 17 I dropped out of school and got married and by the time I was 18 I had my daughter, but this still didn't keep me from doing the drugs, needless to say this ended up in divorce and my daughter was without a father, this made me want to drink even more and smoke pot more. This went on for many years than I met the wife I am with now and we moved to Hazard, KY and this is where I got on pills and still doing the pot and drinking. We had a son and after a few years we moved to Somerset, KY this is where it got really bad my son would come up and ask me for money and I would tell him I don't have any money, me knowing I had money in my pocket but I needed it to buy my drugs with. I treated my wife terrible, but that didn't matter she still stood right there, only Gods know how she put up with me. Well now I was hooked on cocaine and still drinking and doing pills, I stayed high all the time. I didn't care about myself nor my family all I worried about was getting high, I would take our rent money and buy my drugs with it and than call my mother and tell her some big story that the car was messed up and we needed the money to fix it. Well by now I had gotten to point of where I didn't care if I lived or died I just wanted to take a gun and blow my brains out, it really wouldn't had matter to me. Now it was the week-end before my birthday and the apartments where I lived was having a big b-day party for me, all my friends was going to be there and all the drinks and pot and drugs you could want, I couldn't wait well we was having the party and I had drink and smoked and done I don't know how many pills, I was really messed up. My brother-in-law had just gotten out of jail and he had gotten saved while in there, he walked up on the hill where I was at ( I really believe that God had sent him there) well he set down beside of me and he said Major, God loves you no matter where you have been or what you have done. I said how could anybody love something like me, he said God loves you no matter what. Well this must have hit me because I started crying, well I went upstairs and told my wife I was going to church. she just looked at me like I was crazy and said yea right. Well I laid down and you got to remember I was still blowed out of my mind and This big voice came to me and said, (Major if you don't change its not going to be a good out come) now you tell me if God can't reach a sinner man. Well I got up the next morning and still half blowed out of my mind went to my other brother-in-law and ask him where a church was that I could go to, he told me about Harvest Time assembly of God. So that evening I started to get ready and the old devil on my back telling me I would never change, look at you what do you think them people is going to think of you. Well I didn't listen I was determined to go. So the time had came and here we pulled up to the church and the devil still there telling me to go home and smoke some pot or do you a pill than you will feel better. So I got out of the car and stood there looking at the church thinking maybe I should go home, I told my sister-in-law I said I am scared I want to go home, she said no you have come this for now lets go. So I went in and the preacher and some other guys was coming out of the office and I told my brother-in-law I need to talk to him, he said Major that is the pastor, I said I don't care who he is I need to talk to him, so the pastor came over and welcome me and I ask him if I could talk to him and he said yes, so we went to the entrance and I looked at him with tears in my eyes, I ask him would he pray for me, I am a drug addict, he said yes and we went back in and I went back to my seat which was in the main back of the church, I listened to the singing and the devil still on my back telling me to go home, what do you think these people are saying about you, so I seat there and listen to the preacher preach and than the alter call came, man you talk about being scared and the pastor said something he said, (no matter what you have done or where you came from God still loves you) so here I was the devil still telling me to go home, well I was almost ready to just walk out and go home. Than this voice came to me again and said, (Major you take the first step and watch what happens) when this voice had came I was on my out the door, I stopped and turned and looked at the author, I said okay I am going to take that first step so I did and it was like I wasn't on my own anymore. I got up there and said Lord please forgive me I am a drug addict, it was like all the stuff and burdens I was carrying wasn't there anymore. That was on September 11, 2005 I have been drug free and aloc. free from than on. I didn't have no withdraws no doctors God delivered me instantly.
Thank you Lord.
PS. if he done it for me he can do it for you.

My Testimony

    My name is Betty and my testimony is that God can deliver you from anything once you decide you want to be free. I was bound for many years with depression and it was something I could not seem to get free from. The devil told me I would never be free and for years I suppose I believed that because every time I tried it only lasted for a few months. In Dec 1996 God delivered me from depression and I know that he's the only one that can really do that. Pills cannot do it. They only made it worse. I felt as though I was in a prison and I seen the bars around me. My pastors wife at the time, Sis Patricia Yates, started praying for me on that Sunday and my life has not been the same. The Lord showed her the cage I was in and she realized the shape I was in and she did not quit praying until I was set free. I hated my life and at times even my husband and daughter. I wanted to die and wished every morning that I would die before night, then at night I wished to die before the next day. Many times I thought about suicide but thanks be to God I never did it. God had a call on my life and he would not allow Satan to destroy me. If you are tired of depression, God will set you free, but you must get tired of it and want to be free. Cry out to Jesus and he will send someone your way that understands the pain you are in, and they will help you find your way to freedom.

    My name is Paul and I would like to tell you some of the many things that God has done for me. First off he saved me from a world of sin. About 7 years ago I went to a revival meeting on the last night of it. I had seen some friends over there and went to say hi to them. Before I got over there I had already decided that I would say hello and leave. Well one of my friends asked me “well you didn’t just come over to see us did you.”  To which I replied “no” Not to be one to lie I Said “I’ll be right back.”  I went to go get my Bible. Well when I got back the service started and God started to knock at my hearts door saying “I love you please let me come back in to your heart.” Well that night I reaccepted the Lords free gift and started serving the lord again after 2-3 years of not going to church at all. At about 11:00 p.m. we went to the creek and I Got baptized and there God gave me yet another blessing because I knew I was forgiven of all of my sins and never did I have a better (more clean) feeling in my life. I knew that Jesus loved me but not as much as I learned that night or every day or night ever since. The next thing I would like to tell you about is how God has helped me with my temper. Even after I got saved I still had a really bad temper. All people had to do is say something to me and if I took it the wrong way I would go totally off and say things that I should not have been saying because it wasn’t even close to how Jesus would say handle it nor was I being a good witness. People because of that reason had a hard time believing I was a Christian they couldn’t believe I went to church. However I knew I would never be believable if I didn’t change. So I prayed for God to help me (with my temper) and now I do a whole lot better because he answered that prayer and he helped me. I have learned what the Bible was talking about when he said you could be angry and sin not.( Eph:4:26: Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath). Thank you Lord!! God has also helped me forgive some different people that I had a been hurt by. One of them was my dad who I had so much hate in my heart for that I just knew if I saw him I would probably have punched him in the nose. Today however those feelings have been changed into forgiveness and love and if I ever got to see him I could honestly say I would tell him I love him and forgive him. (Mt:6:14: For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:). I found after I forgave my dad that it became much easier to forgive others because if I could let that pain go I could let anything go. I would also like to say that if anyone has a problem anyone and it’s causing you to hate them or hold it against them I encourage you to let it go because I know form personal experience that those feelings do not hurt them as bad as they hurt you. Those feelings will keep you as long as you let them and if you keep them it is easier to have hate in your heart for anyone else who you feel have come against you. Forgiveness is the key!!! These few things I have shared with you are just a few of the many great things God has done for me. I hope that this helps anyone who is going through any of the same issues. May God bless you all on this journey. May he help you through any struggles you have. I know what he did for me and he can do the same for you. (Phil 4:13: I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.)

    If I would begin to thank God for everything that has happened, there would not be enough room for me to put it in. But I first would like to thank God for saving me a long time ago. He saved me when I was young. I have grown in the Lord since.

    There has been many influences in my Christian walk. I have wonderful Christian parents, that told me I can do anything I want. They influenced me to walk with God. As the old cliché is I have gone to far to go back now. In the Lord, I have went to far to go back on the Lord. James5:16 says Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. And without God I would not be as strong in the Lord as I am today!

    I would like to thank the church for being a great influence in the last few years that I have been acquainted with them. In August of 2001 I started coming to this church. What a blessing to go through the 14 week prayer revival and know how God has moved in it since. Thanks to Bro. Ronnie and Sis. Betty for their leadership in the church. We need to get behind our pastor and hold him up in your prayers. That he can stand boldly on the great principles he has shown the church now and in the past!

    God bless all that go to the Hungry House. With the differences in "church" this is one of the greatest places to worship God in spirit and in truth! For one, We have the love in the church to do anything, and two, the unity we show in the church is the greatest shown since I have been a Christian some 24 years now. Thank God for all!

God Bless All.

Hi! My name is Dawn Wheat. This is my testimony of what GOD can do.

I started drinking when I was twelve. I did it to be cool. I did it because it felt good to drink. I also started experimenting with drugs at about the same time. I started out smoking pot. I tried hashish, cocaine and a lot of speed. Speed, in the pill form, was my drug of choice. Hard liquor was my drink of choice. When I was 16, I got married. The guy I married didn't really believe in GOD. By the time I was 17, I was in the NAVY. I do thank GOD for my 2 beautiful children. While I was married, I started having lesbian affairs. I still continued to drink, quite heavily, and I still did speed, pretty heavily. I met this one lesbian and I got divorced from my then husband. I lost primary custody of my 2 children because of my lesbianism. My lover passed away in 1996. She died because I carried the spinal meningitis virus and she had aids.

I moved back in with my mom and dad. I still worked in Bowling Green. My mom and dad stood by me un-conditionally. My dad tried to get me to file for Social Security Benefits when I originally moved in with them, back in 1989. I was depressed because I had just lost everything that I had going for me in Louisville. My lover moved back to Texas. I wasn't allowed to see my children, not even when the court system said that I could. I would get a job and work that job anywhere between 2 weeks to 6 months. I finally started getting professional help.

I found a good job in Bowling Green. My dad got interested in computers. He got a computer to help him keep track of his baseball card collection. He bought it from a person named Ronnie Madden. Ronnie and his wife used to operate a booth in the Bowling Green Flea Land . They moved their shop back to Scottsville, KY. Dad used to have problems with the computer. He would ask me to take it to Scottsville after I got off from work, on Friday. I started hanging out with my new found friends, Dee and Ronnie. I started learning how to build computers.

Dee got to know this one new preacher in Scottsville. His name was Paul Cesco. I got to Scottsville that Monday, after having spent the weekend at my dad's. She asked me if I wanted to go to a revival with her. I was half drunk, and I said no, but thanks for inviting me. She asked me 2 more times. On the third time, I was still half drunk, I said sure. I thought that if I went, she would leave me alone about going to church. I went to this revival.

I was on someone's front porch. I stood by the porch light. When alter call was given, I felt like someone was tugging at me. I didn't go to the alter. The revival went on for a few more days. On the third day that I went, I was still standing by the light. When alter call was given, I couldn't get to the alter fast enough. I felt so much better. I had a big burden lifted, right off my shoulders.

There was 2 guys that used to hang out at Dee and Ronnie's computer shop. Both of them really liked me. One of them fell in love with me. I couldn't tolerate him. Now I am married to him. We have been married since Oct. of 1997. One night our regular pastor was out doing a tent revival. We had a guest preacher come in for the service. His message was about gays and lesbians being ordained and such. He was doing a good job of bringing the word. He unfortunately stepped out of the word. He said that gays and lesbians had no right to be in a church or house of GOD at all. I being a baby Christian, got so upset at what he just said that I went outside to calm down. By the time his sermon was over, half of the congregation was outside checking on me. I went back inside just in time for him to ask if anyone had anything that they wanted to say. I stood up and told that little preacher man my testimony. I also told him how I felt that gays and lesbians should be welcomed into a church. They are people too. They have feelings and GOD can change them too! Even till this day, that preacher won't look me in the eye or shake my hand. One of the women from the congregation came up to me at the end of service and said to me, "If you hadn't stood and told your testimony, I was going to say it for you."

Shortly after that, my husband and I both lost our jobs. We found temporary work, but it wasn't enough to keep us from loosing our trailer. We moved in with my parents. We both had trouble keeping jobs. I was struggling with Bi-Polar Disorder. I was making it difficult for my whole family. My mom had Alzheimer's pretty bad. My husband and I separated in late January of 2000. My dad got pressured to go to Florida to help some so called "friends" re-model a house. He had a massive heart attack a massive stroke while he was down there. Another so called "friend" brought my mom home. I called my husband and asked him to come help me with mom. My dad passed away down in Florida. Shortly after my dad passed away, these so called "friends" and my uncle filed for custody of my mom. They won. We had to move out from where we were living.

We moved to Russell County. I was still fighting Bi-Polar Disorder, severe depression, anger and my medicine wasn't working. After about 4 weeks here, I was arguing with my husband and I had been drinking. I was feeling suicidal and homicidal. I asked my husband to call his mom and take me to Columbia hospital. I was in the hospital for 5 days. I had to check out because I had a Social Security hearing in 2 days. I received my disability. I have been clean from drugs (illegal) and I have been sober from alcohol ever since I got out of Columbia Hospital. That was in the year of 2000. I thank GOD for what He has done for me. I let him into my heart and I am growing in the Lord everyday!
