This conversation walks through the pain, the beliefs, the questions, and the cost—then traces what she describes as a step-by-step restoration of identity through surrender to Jesus. Janick speaks candidly about mental health battles, the complexity of family dysfunction, and why she believes “fruit” in someone’s life isn’t the same as God’s approval. If you’ve wrestled with identity, faith, suffering, or how Christians should respond with truth and compassion, this episode is for you.

Jamie shares the story behind his viral response to the “He Gets Us” Super Bowl ad and why a Jesus who only “relates” to us—but never calls us out of sin—falls short of the biblical Christ. From there, the conversation moves into the big questions: God, evil, suffering, and why our intuitions about right and wrong point beyond a purely material universe. Along the way, you’ll hear powerful glimpses of lives radically changed by Christ and a clear, hopeful explanation of what it actually means to be “set free.” If you’re a skeptic, a struggler, or a believer looking for clarity in the chaos, this episode will challenge you to reconsider who Jesus is and what He offers.

Growing up in rural Romania with a nominal faith, Vlad slowly fell into pornography, hookup culture, and deep isolation. His life spiraled in Germany where depression and addiction took over, even while he still called himself a “Christian.” But then something unexpected happened. A testimony on this very channel interrupted everything. That video led to real Bible study, real confession, real community, and ultimately—a real encounter with Jesus Christ. Vlad moved to London, walked into a global Christian gathering, and there, surrounded by believers, he finally understood the cross. He chose repentance, baptism, and a new life in Christ. Since that moment, everything is different. Temptations still exist, but he is no longer alone, no longer hopeless, and no longer defined by his past. This is a story about identity, deception, love, spiritual warfare, and the power of God to rescue anyone. Share this with someone who needs hope.
