Testimony by Andy Magee

While serving in the military, I was once challenged in reading Billy Graham’s autobiography how he made the assertion that he seized any platform for sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.  Attending a military school at the time, I prayed that the Lord would give me this same heart.  One day when required to put together a presentation in front of my peers, topic choices were being passed from one student to another.  When I received the selection, there was a topic titled, “Spiritual Wellness” that jumped out at me.  I briefly wrestled with whether this could be the prompting of the Holy Spirit or not.  I remember this battle well and ended by choosing this topic while saying to myself, “Oh boy….here we go Lord!”  During my preparation, I struggled with what I felt the Lord wanted me to share amongst my peers; however, I chose to be obedient and speak about what I believed the Lord had placed in my heart.  When the day of delivery came, you could have heard a pin drop afterwards.  No questions, no comments…..just silence.  Regardless, I knew in my heart that I did right.
Fast forward….It was maybe a month later and I was at my “higher” headquarters making copies.  When waiting behind the brigade chaplain, I happened to look at what he was copying and was stunned to see that he was making copies of my presentation.  I wondered how he even got a copy of it!  When asked, he told me that the brigade commander (who commands over 2,400 Soldiers) tasked him to charge every battalion chaplain with making this presentation.  At the time of our conversation, this brigade chaplain did not even know that I was the author.  I stood humbled at how the Lord would use a simple, ordinary guy like me to impact so many.  The brigade commander later told me that he was so struck by what I put together that he had this presentation by his bed side for a while as he meditated on its content.  I praise God and am grateful.

In Christ,
Andy Magee
