God Saved Me From My Past - Seme's Testimony

What happens when you know God's truth—but choose your own way anyway? In this powerful and deeply vulnerable episode of The Raw Faith Podcast, Seme shares her testimony of growing up in church, entering a same-sex relationship, believing God had become silent, and ultimately experiencing the life-changing grace and mercy of Jesus Christ. This conversation isn't about condemning anyone or glorifying a past lifestyle. It's about the incredible redemption of God and how His love pursues us—even when we run from Him. Seme openly discusses: * Growing up as a pastor's daughter without a personal relationship with Jesus * Why she entered a same-sex relationship despite knowing Scripture * Feeling like God had become silent * The question that changed everything * Repentance, restoration, and rebuilding her relationship with Christ * Learning to discern God's voice again * What she's looking for in a future God-centered marriage * Why God's grace is truly sufficient If you've ever felt too far gone, ashamed of your past, or wondered whether God could still restore you, this episode is for you. No matter where you've been, God's grace is greater than your past.
