“I was a Christian — but lived like a pagan.”In this episode, Liam Gallacher, a London-born graphic designer, shares a raw and honest testimony of searching for truth across Christian denominations, Buddhism, Hare Krishna, philosophies, and gurus — all while knowing his own life wasn’t worth imitating. He preached order to others, yet lived in quiet contradiction himself. During lockdown, everything changed. Through online Bible studies with men who reached his heart, Liam encountered Christianity as he’d never seen it before — not vague talk about forgiveness or church, but what the Bible actually says about seeking God and becoming a true Christian.
