Miracle Stories from Around the World

Ashok grew up in a Christian family in India. Although his family attended church regularly, their faith didn’t feel deeply rooted. Then, tragedy struck: Ashok’s father passed away unexpectedly, leaving his mother to raise him and his older brother alone. With no formal education, she took on any work she could find to keep the family afloat. But despite her efforts, their family’s financial struggles only grew, and Ashok’s childhood became marked by hardship and loss.

Feeling abandoned and angry, Ashok lost interest in school and found himself falling in with the wrong crowd. He spent his days with friends in the neighborhood, getting into trouble, and eventually joining a gang. His behavior left his family feeling helpless, and in their frustration, they sometimes voiced their desperation, even saying life would be easier if he weren’t around. These words left a deep wound on Ashok, intensifying his sense of hopelessness.

One evening, searching for a sense of peace, Ashok turned on the television and came across Hope Channel India. He watched as others shared their stories of finding purpose and transformation through faith, and something stirred within him. For the first time, he felt that maybe a new path was possible. Compelled to learn more, Ashok called the Hope Channel prayer line, reaching out for help.

Through the encouragement of Hope Channel Bible workers, Ashok began learning about God’s love, forgiveness, and the hope found in Jesus. Inspired and transformed by these messages, he dedicated his life to Christ and was later baptized, marking a turning point in his life from turmoil to peace.
