Christopher Yuan

What many would consider their worst nightmare has become a reality for Christopher Yuan.  While attending dental school, he began living a promiscuous homosexual lifestyle and experimenting with illicit drugs.  Within a few years, he was expelled from dental school, imprisoned for drug dealing and discovered that he was HIV positive.

But God has turned his nightmare into an exciting and inspiring story of redemption, grace and transformation.  Christopher has an understanding heart for and a desire to minister to those living with HIV/AIDS and those struggling with sexual brokenness.  He speaks locally and internationally to youth, on college campuses, in churches and in prisons.

Christopher graduated from Moody Bible Institute in 2005 and Wheaton College Graduate School in 2007 with a master's in biblical exegesis.  He now teaches at Moody while continuing his speaking ministry which has reached four continents around the world.  Christopher has spoken at both Saddleback Church and Willow Creek Community Church in America.  He is also featured in the award-winning documentary, "HOPE Positive: Surviving the Sentence of AIDS."

Debbie Morris

Perhaps you’ve seen the Oscar-winning film, Dead Man Walking, or you’ve seen Debbie on the Today Show, Nightline, PBS's Frontline or Fox News. Now hear the story live recounting her abduction, terror and the journey of forgiveness which followed.

Debbie was abducted in Louisiana at age 16, along with her boyfriend Mark, by Joseph Vaccaro and Robert Willie. Mark was stabbed, shot, and left for dead hanging from a tree. Debbie was abducted by gunpoint and violently taunted by the men. Miraculously, Mark recovered fully and the two men let Debbie go after being held for over 24 hours. Vaccaro and Willie had previously killed another teenager the conviction of which came after Debbie testified in court. Debbie endured the trial and the roller coaster of depression and hate which followed. At the time of the execution of Robert Willie she realized that this human justice was not enough to help her.

Nick Vujicic

"My name is Nick Vujicic and I'm 25 years old. I was born without arms or legs and given no medical reason for this condition. Faced with countless challenges and obstacles, God has given me the strength to surmount what others might call impossible. Along with that, the Lord has placed within me an unquenchable passion to share this same hope and genuine love that I’ve personally experienced with more than two million people all over the globe."
