Mark by Mercy

From a very young age, Mark Johnston grew up around pubs, parties, drunks, drug addicts and criminals. He was a victim of physical, sexual, mental and emotional abuse. By the age of 19 Mark had attempted suicide numerous times and was put into 7 drug induced comas, self mutilated, planned on murdering other people, and was an extremely violent individual that detested life. Knocking at death's door, ready at any time to go in, Mark encountered Christ in 2011. This encounter was set to change his life. He entered The Transformations discipleship program on the Gold Coast of Australia, which really turned his life around. He completed the program in a little over a year, becoming a staff member of the program in south-east Queensland, where he helped poineer a new campus. May his story inspire you to fight against all odds, and move you towards a life of fulfilment.
