What turns a hard-partying teen into a father of a global church movement?
In this fascinating opening to a series of conversations, I have the privilege of sitting with 85-year-old Bible teacher Terry Virgo to trace the surprising twists: a sister’s bold question after a Billy Graham rally, four years of a “double life,” a thunderbolt sermon that forced a choice, and a leap from safe Civil Service career to living by faith—with jaw-dropping stories of provision down to the exact pound.
Along the way you’ll hear:
How Terry broke free from “Romans 7” legalism into the joy of grace—“I don’t have to impress God; I’m hidden in Christ.”
The moment he nearly lost heart…and the promise in Genesis 28 that steadied his calling for decades.
Why stale, formal church life pushed him to pioneer grace-soaked, Spirit-alive communities—the seeds of Newfrontiers across 70 nations.
The love story with Wendy that began with a hockey stick, a blunt letter, and a chapel prayer.
If you’ve ever wondered whether people (or churches) really change—or how grace moves from page to pulse—this conversation will stir your faith and reframe your future.
Watch now to see how one ordinary life became an extraordinary legacy
Terry’s life and message beautifully embody the truth that wisdom is not about knowing more but about walking closely with the One who knows all.
My prayer is that these conversations will encourage you, wherever you are on your journey, to rediscover the joy of grace and the freedom of living with eternity in view.
