Elder McCartney's Journey From Rock Bottom to Christ

Elder McCartney grew up going to church because his best friend's family made it a condition of Sunday hangouts. He got baptized at 13. Then at 18 he walked away. Four years of going inactive, making mistakes, and becoming someone nobody recognized including himself.

Description:

Elder McCartney grew up going to church because his best friend's family made it a condition of Sunday hangouts. He got baptized at 13. Then at 18 he walked away. Four years of going inactive, making mistakes, and becoming someone nobody recognized including himself.

Then on December 17th at 4 a.m., he said goodbye to his mom. And the only thought that got him through that night was one thing he had been taught as a kid. Families can be together forever.

In this episode of the Choosing Jesus Christ Podcast, Elder McCartney shares what happened after that night, how a random sacrament meeting in Utah made him feel whole for the first time in four years, and how a service mission became a teaching mission through nothing but miracles.

His story is for anyone who thinks they have gone too far to come back.

Elder McCartney's answer: God has been one step ahead of you the whole time. He never stopped trying to bring you home.
