Starting today, twice a month you can look forward to hearing the testimonies of what God has done in people's lives with all kinds of different backgrounds. My favorite thing about testimonies is that they are reminders of what God can do through us - not of what we can do by ourselves or what we do for ourselves, but what only God can do. That's why this series is called Look What God Did instead of Testimony Saturday - to remind us.

For our first episode in this series, I sat down with Lexi Cross who says the biggest part of her testimony has come from spiritual warfare - dealing with things from eating disorders to occult practices to self harm, Lexi talks about the questions she's started asking and how God has been speaking to her and giving her the confidence to escape her comfort zone if only to make him known.

Quotes from today's episode:

• I grew up with a false idea of the true gospel and had no idea I was being deceived.


• People need to know Him and the whole point of us sharing our testimony is so that people can grow closer in their relationship with Christ.


• It's the position of our hearts. It's nothing anyone can do for us. It is a relationship with Jesus himself. He is real.


• Christianity is offensive to anyone who does not claim Jesus is God.


• We can act outside of His will but that does not mean that He does not have a hand in everything that goes on. He will always make it according to His will and God can only do good.


• Demons know how to twist the Word of God and they know how to twist you.


• I lost a lot of friends. I lost a lot. But I gained a relationship with Jesus Christ and I would do it all over again.


• We live our lives trying to fix things ourselves and we can't do that. We can only rely on Christ.


• What matters is Jesus and my relationship with Him and I've never had any kind of love like this before.
