In today's episode, Becket Cook sits down with Tomas Kaya, a Swedish singer and preschool teacher who shares his powerful testimony of salvation at 17, years of backsliding into a homosexual lifestyle, and his dramatic return to Christ through conviction, repentance, and renewed faith.

Tomas opens up about growing up in an Orthodox Syrian-Turkish household marked by honor culture, abuse, and family struggles, how bitterness led him away from God, and how the Holy Spirit brought healing, freedom, and purpose back into his life. This inspiring Christian testimony explores repentance, forgiveness, same-sex attraction, persecution for faith, and the transforming power of Jesus Christ.
