Blake Swoboda: From Empty Rituals to a Real Relationship with Jesus (Testimony) | EP #48 (Part 1)

In this powerful Christian testimony, Blake Swoboda shares how he grew up in a Catholic tradition shaped by guilt, ritual, and a distant relationship with God. He opens up about struggling with faith, battling feelings of spiritual inadequacy, and wondering how to get closer to God. But everything changed during college, when he had a divine encounter with Jesus Christ, discovering the true meaning of grace, salvation, and trust in God’s plan.

Blake’s story is a powerful reminder that God’s promises are real, that the Holy Spirit is present even in our doubts, and that trusting in God’s timing can transform our lives. As he dives into how Christian fellowship, studying the Word of God, and personal surrender changed his heart, you’ll be inspired by his journey of redemption, spiritual growth, and overcoming fear through faith in Christ.

👉 This is part one of a two-part conversation. Stay tuned for part two, where Blake faces unimaginable trials — and experiences God’s faithfulness in the darkest moments.
