Samuel Okurut joins us for a vulnerable and gut-wrenching conversation about his traumatic past and his incredible testimony of finding God through horrific suffering. Growing up in Uganda, he experienced the joys of village life before being thrust into the horrors of war, eventually facing captivity, torture, and persecution—even after his conversion. In this episode, he shares his struggles with why God allowed his suffering to continue, what true forgiveness looks like, and how he ultimately found healing, purpose, and hope in Christ. His story, told in his book Living in the Shadow of Death: From a Child of War to an Ambassador of Christ, is a powerful reminder that God is present even in our deepest pain. This conversation is not for the faint of heart, but it will challenge you to embrace Christ in the face of suffering, grow in your faith, and hold fast to the hope of eternity.
