39: I Have Decided to Follow Jesus

 

Today's guest is Austin, and he shares stories of growing up with a grandfather who had a radical encounter with Jesus when he was 16 years old living in Trinidad. After meeting Jesus, Austin's grandfather made the choice to leave behind everything he had in order to pursue Jesus, and he spent years preaching the gospel in the streets of Trinidad.

Austin shares stories of seeing his grandfather nonchalantly engage in spiritual warfare. He would often hear his grandfather speaking to things that weren't there, and as he grew older he realized that his grandfather had been speaking to angels and demons. 

As kids, Austin and his cousins also played games trying to "stir up" the spirit realm, and actually had some encounters with the demonic. Then as he grew older, Austin tried to follow his idea of his calling instead of following the Holy Spirit, and he shares where that led him, and how he ultimately came to begin following the Lord's path for his life, and where that has led him.
