Go to God Before He Comes to You ..
Angela Adkins Podcast – Featuring Pastor Juan Fraustro
In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Angela Adkins Podcast, Angela sits down with Pastor Juan Fraustro to share an unforgettable testimony of surrender, redemption, and the life-changing moment that transformed his entire life.
Pastor Juan opens up about a dark season when his marriage was on the brink of divorce and his life felt completely broken. During that time, while serving in the Navy, he experienced a terrifying dream that forced him to confront the weight of his sin and make a life-altering decision.
In that moment, he felt God present in the room and realized he had two choices: life or death.
That encounter became the turning point that led him to surrender his life to Christ. What followed was a journey of repentance, restoration, and transformation that would ultimately lead him into ministry.
Angela and Pastor Juan also discuss what it means to die to your old self, walk daily with Christ, and why it’s so important to go to God before He comes to you.
The conversation also touches on real struggles believers face, including seasons of suffering, spiritual battles, and moments when faith is tested. Through it all, both Angela and Pastor Juan share powerful reminders that hope is always found in Jesus.
From restored marriages to changed lives and the call to reach “the one,” this episode is a moving reminder that God can take even the darkest moments and turn them into a testimony.
