Simon's Testimony
A bad lad made good!
Simon was raised in a loving home with a
clear sense of right and wrong. But as he
got older, things began to change.
“I got in with the ‘bad lads’ at school and
started drinking, getting into heavy metal
and all that goes with it. 
Our philosophy
was to live fast and die young.”
When he left school, the drinking increased and a friend started to sell him drugs.
Simon’s doctor warned him that if he didn’t stop, he would die. He had
developed liver damage and his mind had started to go.
One night Simon watched the film “Jesus of
Nazareth”. He was struck by Jesus’ power
over evil, the cleansing and forgiveness he
offered and the way he died upon the cross.
 At that moment peace
flooded into Simon and all
the guilt of his sin ebbed
away. “I experienced an
intimate friendship with
Jesus. I continued to talk to God freely about everything, praising and
thanking Him for His great love to me.”
Simon woke up the next day changed from the inside out. Everybody
noticed it. It was the beginning of a long healing process.
Today, Simon is a pastor of Park Church, Shelton. You can meet him
there!
