brian Welch found Jesus when he was
0:02
addicted to meth He wasn't just a
0:04
regular guy either He was the lead
0:06
guitarist of one of the biggest metal
0:08
bands in the world Corn fame money
0:12
parties He had it all But deep down
0:16
Brian was
0:18
spiraling At the height of K's success
0:21
Brian was struggling with addiction
0:22
depression and single fatherhood He was
0:25
hooked on meth alcohol and pills trying
0:27
to balance that lifestyle while raising
0:29
his daughter alone He'd go on stage in
0:32
front of thousands then go back to his
0:34
hotel room and snort meth until he
0:37
passed out And all the while he knew he
0:39
was destroying himself and hurting his
0:41
little girl in the process One day a
0:44
friend invited him to church Brian
0:46
wasn't looking for God He wasn't trying
0:48
to get clean He just went And sitting
0:51
there in the back row the pastor said
0:54
something that hit him like a ton of
0:55
bricks Come to me all who are weary and
0:58
burdened and I will give you rest Brian
1:02
thought "That's me I'm tired I'm broken
1:06
I need help." He went home that night
1:09
dropped to his knees and prayed a prayer
1:11
he never thought would work Jesus if
1:14
you're real take away my drugs Take my
1:17
life I'm yours And that's when it
1:20
happened
1:21
In his words it felt like something left
1:23
his body He said he felt the purest high
1:26
head ever experienced but this time it
1:28
wasn't drugs It was God From that moment
1:32
on he never touched meth
1:34
again Soon after Brian did something
1:36
unthinkable He walked away from corn the
1:39
fame the millions all of it because he
1:42
wanted to follow Jesus with everything
1:43
he had People thought he was crazy He
1:46
got mocked misqued and misunderstood But
1:49
he didn't care But he flew to Israel got
1:51
baptized in the Jordan River and started
1:54
reading the Bible every day His life
1:56
wasn't instantly perfect He still had to
1:58
heal grow and learn how to be a dad But
2:01
Jesus gave him hope and a reason to live
2:04
He started speaking in churches wrote a
2:06
book about his story and eventually
2:09
something wild happened He rejoined K
2:12
But this time he wasn't the same He
2:14
wasn't there to party He was there to be
2:16
a light He still tours with them today
2:19
but now he prays before every show He
2:22
tells fans about Jesus He reaches people
2:25
exactly where they are because that's
2:27
what God did for him I don't have
2:30
religion Brian says I have a
2:32
relationship with God He healed me He
2:35
loved me when I was at my worst And now
2:38
I want to love others the same way From
2:41
meth to mercy from rockstar to reborn
