Newsboys original member John James almost lost everything trying to live a double life. A miraculous encounter reminded him of the truth of true freedom in Christ.
John James is a perfect example of no matter how far you've gone, Jesus is still there waiting for you. Just like the story of the Prodigal Son. Grace this greater than all our sins. Thank you, Jesus! 🙌
Not ashamed was my very first Christian cassette tape! And my kids grew up on Newsboys and Praise the Lord they are all saved! Great message of hope and restoration and grace! ❤
Gracias por compartirlo, pues Dios está usando el testimonio de este hombre para animar mi caminar con Él, al momento en que está llevándome a ese lugar donde usualmente no queremos ir: la cruz... Dios les bendiga.

What a beautiful story. God bless John. He is a wonderful testimony of the true experience with Christ. That’s an experience that no money or fame could ever give. God is good. The only thing that really matters. Thank you Lord.
What we do affects ourselves,...and everyone else around us. Satan attacks the christ believers so we won't be effective. God chastises those He loves.

Please pray for my spirit guides and the spirit of witchcraft to be removed from me forever. I feel like my spirit guides are tormenting me. I pray that I give my life to Christ and I only hear Jesus and Gods voices, no more spirit guides
Heavenly Father, we are seeking for Your divine intervention and guidance for our friend. Please hear their heart's cry to remove any spirit guides and the spirit of witchcraft from their life forever. (2 Thessalonians 3:3) We pray that Your powerful presence would surround and protect them, freeing them from any torment or confusion caused by these influences. (Romans 8:21) May their heart be opened to You, Jesus, and God alone, so that they hear Your loving and comforting voices guiding their path. Grant them the strength and clarity to fully surrender their life to You, and may Your grace be their refuge. In Jesus' name, amen. }
Don't blame anyone. You sinned against your wife. Be thankful for GODS grace. Now don't try to come back old glory. GOD has forgiven you we still love you.
Not necessarily. I think if you represent Christ in your career, the standards are higher and keeping him in the band while living a life that doesn’t represent Christ would destroy the band. He needed to step down for refusing to change. If they had kept him on, it could have cost him his soul. They may still be friends. Tough love is what God has to exercise over us at times. Sometimes, it is the only way.
I’m pretty sure they still are. He toured with the Newsboys and shared his testimony on the tour back in 2009 around the time that Michael Tait became the lead singer.
No they asked him just leave the band cause obviously his condition. Can’t be in a Christian band with those issues. They are friends with him. I’m sure he will return one day maybe when DC Talk reunites.
Martin Luther said about the horrific sins of David... THAT BECAUSE GOD WILL NOT share His Glory with anyone- As David's popularity kept rising , DAVID WAS BROUGHT DOWN, You are not the first, yes, you were guilty, BUT WE HAVE TO TEACH CHRISTIANS stopping their "worship of the Preacher, or that 'rocker' whomever is being IDOLIZED... > YOUR LYRICS were edifying for parents, knowing that their kids are being fed ,,, TRUTH IS, Each person becoming idolized may mean A BREAK and walk away... HOW MANY CHRISTIANS , "STEP AWAY" at , 'the top'? This has to be Taught-"you are getting too high John, "Ahhh "YOU CAN STEP AWAY, OR be brought down

"Not Ashamed" is pure soul food... Love, from Dallas...
Not ashamed was my very first Christian cassette tape! And my kids grew up on Newsboys and Praise the Lord they are all saved! Great message of hope and restoration and grace! ❤
Thank you for sharing. Praise the Lord for redeeming and saving you and your family. God bless you more! }
Awesome I had a similar experience in life. Ironically “take me to your leader” was my first album I acquired in life…
I so love this story of grace, Thanks for sharing, Only the Lord can rebuild a life from the ashes.
Is John still making music? If not I hope one day he is able to use his gift of singing again.
Id LOVE to see him reunited with the Boys. Wouldn't you?❤️
God is so good 🙌🙌🙌
Indeed! |
God loves u, bro....i grew up listening to Newsboys.
Wow , thank you for sharing your story. It has helped me and I’m sure many many other people. How Great is our God 🙏👍🏼😎

John querido, Jesucristo no quebrará la caña cascada, ni apagará el pabilo que humeare! Te abrazo en el Espiritu. Sos un capo! Seguí para adelante

I had been praying for some time ago!
The Lord hears the prayers for His people because He is the Living God. Hallelujah!'
The couch/throne comparison at 13:33 is so good and true.
Love John James. Love the Newsboys. Love the Grace of our God and this redemption story!

May the Lord open doors for you to bring his Gospel far by preaching to become a pastor, a preacher and evangelist
❤❤❤

Does anyone know if he has a Facebook or tiktok or something I can follow him on?
Don't blame anyone. You sinned against your wife. Be thankful for GODS grace. Now don't try to come back old glory. GOD has forgiven you we still love you.
So did the band members turn their backs on him? This is disappointing to learn.
Not necessarily. I think if you represent Christ in your career, the standards are higher and keeping him in the band while living a life that doesn’t represent Christ would destroy the band.

Thank you for visiting our post today. May we always hold the Lord as our First Love in our hearts and lives.
Didn’t Jesus say to reconcile with your first wife? If she dies than you can re marry ?
Can't be done on one person efforts
Jajajaja
Good for him I guess..
Knowing Christ and living for His is the best decision that we can make. }
Still seeking the spotlight. Not broken enough yet, I'm afraid.
What a horrible thing to say.
