Feel distant from God? You’re not alone.

“I always believed in God… but when my child became an atheist, everything I thought I knew was shaken.”

This is the story of how I nearly lost my faith—and how Jesus met me in the middle of my doubts. If you’ve ever wondered whether He’s really there, I hope this helps you take one honest step closer.

What Is a Jesus Encounter?

It’s not a class. It’s an invitation to meet the living Jesus and step into the adventure you were created for.

At The Jesus Encounter, we believe every soul matters—and that includes yours.
Maybe faith has felt distant or confusing, or maybe you’ve never had a real encounter with Jesus.

You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t need to have the right words.
You just need a willingness to say, ‘Jesus, I want to know You.’

This path is simple. We’ll guide you with short reflections, space to pray, and gentle prompts to help you listen.

And when you’re ready, we’ll help you take the next step—whether that’s growing as a disciple or helping someone else encounter Him too.
