From Dealer to Disciple: Jeremy’s Story of Redemption and Purpose

There’s something powerful about hearing a story that reminds you no one is too far gone for God. Jeremy’s journey from dealer to disciple is one of those stories.

He was only 15 when he first got caught up in the world of drugs. What started as curiosity quickly turned into a lifestyle—one marked by dealing, addiction, and eventually imprisonment. Growing up without healthy father figures left a gap that the streets tried to fill. Then came the devastating news: his own father was murdered in a drug-related incident.

Pain piled on top of pain. For Jeremy, the darkness seemed endless.

But God saw him.

Even behind bars, God was moving. Jeremy began to wrestle with questions about his purpose, identity, and worth. What began as survival slowly shifted into surrender. Through the support of believers who didn’t give up on him and the relentless love of a Savior who never left him, Jeremy’s heart began to change.

He found forgiveness, not just from God, but for himself and others. He found healing. And most importantly, he discovered that God wasn’t finished with him.

Today, Jeremy is walking in freedom—not just from addiction, but with a renewed purpose. He shares his story to point others toward the same redemption he received. His testimony reminds us: the same God who parted seas and rescued nations is still in the business of transforming lives today.

No matter where you’ve been, there is hope. There is healing. There is purpose.
