From March 2009 until September 2011 I ran a nonprofit mechanic company called Affordable Auto Repair. My full-time job was fixing cars for broke people for free as a way to share the love of God with people. I never asked anyone for money or charged for any of the work I did, but God always provided all the needs of me and my family and sustained that business.
My life became unexplainable apart from God. I learned to live by faith and follow Jesus in ways I never thought possible. The way you see the Holy Spirit reach the lost with the Gospel through the believers in the Book of Acts became a regular occurrence in my life.
At the end of 2011 God made some major changes in my life and Affordable Auto Repair became a part time job. In July 2013 I went to work for the county I live in as a fleet mechanic, but continued to run Affordable Auto Repair part time.
In March 2019 God had me start making videos on TikTok about how to live by faith and follow Jesus in order to strengthen other believers. That ministry has continually grown and has spread to other social media platforms.
In October 2020 God allowed me to go through some pretty crazy medical issues that He told me He was not going to heal me from at that time, but was instead going to use to transition my life. One year later I was fired from my job at the county because I was unable to due my job due to my medical issues.
I continued to try to run Affordable Auto Repair, but God kept continually telling me He was transitioning my life into something else, and it was time to close that ministry down for good. In March 2023, after 14 years, I shut down my shop for good.
My Ministries
Social Media
God has always called me to very nontraditional ministries like Affordable Auto Repair. I don't just casually make videos about Jesus on TikTok. I spend between 10 to 20 hours per week making videos to post on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Youtube. I have about 400,000 followers combined across all platforms. I spend another 5-15 hours per week answering DM's and emails from people who reach out to me about a wide range of spiritual issues. This results in a lot of discipleship and counseling.
In the four years I've been on social media I've heard from tons of people who have shared with me about the changes God has made in their lives through the content I produce. People are overcoming sin and rededicating their lives to God and learning to follow Jesus and stepping out in faith more to reach the lost with the gospel!
A woman recently emailed me and told me that she's a believer who has always struggled with talking to people about Jesus, but since she's been watching my videos she's started talking to people about Jesus. She goes to counseling and during her therapy sessions she's been talking about Jesus, and as a result her counselor gave her life to Jesus! I hear stories like this all the time.
I'm not sharing these things to be boastful in myself, but rather to explain how God is using me. When I ran the nonprofit mechanic company I was able to minister to one person at a time, but now God is using to train countless others to minister to far more people than I can by myself.
Daily Devotional
I write a free daily devotional that is sent out over email. If you'd like to receive it at no charge please send an email from the email address you'd like to receive it to crazygodstory@gmail.com and write daily devotional in the subject line. I spend several hours per day working on this.
Online Mentorship Program
I've launched a free online discipleship program that meets on zoom and helps people find God's will for their lives by teaching them to follow Jesus. Currently we meet twice a week for about two hours per session.
The current class is a closed group, and we aren't taking anyone new, but a new group will be starting up later this summer (2023).
Revival in Comanche, TX
Recently I preached at a revival in Comanche, TX, and will be traveling to speak at other churches.
Book Ministry
I give away free PDF copies of my book on my website, but also give away free paperback copies was I'm able. I don't get free copies of my own book; each one costs me about $3 to buy. If I ship them it's costs an average of $8 more. I'd like to be able to buy and give away more books.
Everything is Free
One of the things God led me to a long time ago is to not charge anyone for any ministry He does through me so that money isn't and hindrance to ministry. I don't charge for anything I do.
God has continually closed the door on me going back to a regular 9-5 job, and has made it clear that He wants me to work full time at the things that He's called me to do. That requires me to rely on Him to support me and the ministry through me through the Body of Christ.
If you would like to become a financial partner with me in the work God is doing, either with a special gift or on a regular basis, you can contribute through the links below, or reach out to me through DM on social media or email me at crazygodstory@gmail.com for more options.
