Suicide Was Knocking On My Door
By Zach Golding on 20 Apr 2020
SUICIDE WAS KNOCKING ON MY DOOR
This was a bad idea. Clutching a $20 bill in my hand as the answer to the pain I was in didn't give me any peace. I didn't want to be in this place. As a kid I didn't dream about committing suicide, but now I was quickly losing the urge to live. I needed out! I needed a change! In the darkest time of my life God reached out to me, and saved me from the demons tormenting my mind.
This is my story...
It all began when I was tossed into middle school. My older brother wasn't around like he had been during homeschool. Now, I had to make new friends.

God is everything I need - School of Worship YWAM Tyler
By Jenna Dorey on 8 Dec 2017
After my DTS I asked God, "What's next?"
His response, "Go and do a School of Worship."
One thing led to the next and several weeks later I found myself in Texas (never saw that coming) for YWAM Tyler's School of Worship.

The YWAM School of Worship was one of the best decisions I've ever made
By Tyler Tom on 1 Sep 2017
The School of Worship has been a blessing in my life. It has been full of moments where I laughed too much, moments where I wanted to go home, and moments that stretched me to become more than what I was. As my SOW comes to a close, I get an awesome opportunity to reflect on what I’ve learned.
