I'm not sure how many times I have been incarcerated at Crisp County Detention Center. I've also spent time in the Americus Jail, the Houston County Jail, Wilcox Jail, twice I've been to McEver PDC, one month at Jackson State Prison, one week at Hancock State Prison, and 18 months at Coastal State Prison. I may have forgot a few County jails. I have been convicted of 4 felonies and more misdemeanors than I can remember. I lived a life that I am not proud of. On July 13th, 2018, I was released from Prison. On July 21st, 2019, Jesus came into my life and radically saved me. August 18th, 2019, I was baptized. August 24th, 2019, God allowed me to marry Natalie (My daughter was restored to me even though I didn't deserve it. I also receive a bonus daughter and son, River and Fletcher). August of 2020 God allowed us to buy our first house. January 5th, 2021, God allowed us to start Cordele's first and only Celebrate Recovery (I don't keep an exact count, but God has used this ministry to lead countless people to Christ and we've had countless baptisms. We've seen countless addictions laid down and families restored.). In 2021, God allowed me to adopt Fletcher Faircloth as my only son. In 2021, God called me to start a men's residential Christ-centered recovery home and placed a phenomenal team of board members around me. In January 2022, God called me to go to school (Baptist College of Florida). April 17th, 2022, God called me to surrender to ministry. October 2nd, 2022, God called Ebenezer Baptist to ordain me into ministry. In December of 2022, God made a way for Peniel Recovery Ministries, Inc. to get their 501C3 status. God then called Pastor Eric Eidenire and Thrive Church to partner with PRM. On January 29, 2023, God called Ebenezer Baptist to commission the Johnson family as local missionaries to minister through Thrive Church, Celebrate Recovery, and Peniel Recovery Ministries. On February 5th, 2023, I preached my first sermon at Thrive and my beautiful daughter, Clara Mae Johnson was there. This is the same beautiful daughter I abandoned during my addiction. Luckily her mother and bonus father did an outstanding job raising her. On February 5th, 2023, my daughter told me she truly forgave me. On February 10th, 2023, I received an official letter from my probation officer releasing me from probation 7 years early. I was not due to come off probation until August of 2030. Thank You Jesus! For all you struggling out there, there is HOPE and His Name is Jesus! I've only been saved 3.5 years. What is the secret. Let me encourage you to live your life 100% sold-old to King Jesus every day. We must pick up our cross and deny ourselves everyday and live for Him. I am a miracle of the restoration power of Jesus! This can be your story too. OBEDIENCE! I love each of you. If you need help don't hesitate to reach out. My number is (229) 322-4665. I'm only a phone call away. Always remember, JESUS LOVES YOU!
