From Darkness to Light: Jason’s Powerful Testimony of Freedom in Christ
I Am A Witness founder Jason Fike shares his powerful testimony of overcoming depression, emotional struggles, and a life of sin through Jesus Christ. Growing up in a small Texas town, Jason experienced a rough-and-tumble childhood marked by fights, freedom, and an emotional disconnect within his family. Though he believed in God at a young age, he lived decades in sin—drinking, drugs, violence, and chasing worldly pleasures—while struggling with depression and emotional suppression. Despite outward success in business and family life, his internal turmoil deepened, leading him to the brink of suicide. In a desperate moment, Jason cried out to God, and he experienced a supernatural deliverance from darkness. This encounter sparked a hunger for God’s Word, leading him to full surrender to Christ, transformation, and healing. Now, through I Am A Witness, Jason shares his story to glorify God, encourage others, and offer hope to those seeking truth and purpose.

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. - Psalm 34:17-18

I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. - Psalm 40:1-2

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

We are not defined by our past, mistakes, failures, or sin—we are overcomers, born again, and alive in Christ Jesus.

  • I can't put into words the profound change Jesus brought to my life. The only thing I do know is that, I can't deny Jesus.

  • My life was a complete mess and I was even contemplating the unthinkable, that's when Jesus stepped in and turned everything around.

  • I’m a completely new creation in Christ; when I look back at who I used to be, it feels like a stranger I barely recognize.
