In this gripping episode of the GoMission podcast, Mark Gilmore sits down with Brother Deepraj to hear his incredible testimony of salvation and transformation. Born into a radical religious family and labeled "unholy" from birth, Deepraj endured unimaginable rejection, abuse, and spiritual confusion. But the God he once hated—the God he persecuted—pursued him, rescued him, and raised him up to be a disciple-maker whose ministry has now impacted hundreds of thousands across South Asia.

• Growing up in a radical, anti-Christian home
• Cultural superstitions and being labeled "unholy"
• Surviving multiple suicide attempts and deep despair
• Discovering the Bible and encountering the love of Jesus
• Facing persecution and being disowned after salvation
• Receiving discipleship and training from a foreign missionary
• The simplicity and power of house church multiplication
• Using personal testimony and the Word of God as evangelism tools
• Over 600,000 baptized and 120,000 house churches started
• The hope and healing that comes from being known and loved by God

• Even the most rejected and broken life is not beyond the reach of God’s redemptive love.
• True peace and healing come not through religion or ritual, but through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
• The Word of God, faithfully taught and obeyed, has the power to transform hearts and communities.
• Multiplication in missions is possible when ordinary believers are empowered by Scripture and the Spirit.
• God uses those who are willing—even the unwanted, the outcast, and the persecuted—to reach the nations for His glory.
