Tough Talk

Tough Talk

Powerful Guys with a Powerful Story

Tough Talk is made up of a small group of men, some with unsavory backgrounds, but all with powerful testimonies of the life-changing power of the Holy Spirit. 

Arthur’s story – World Champion Powerlifter, successful businessman, happy family man. But cocaine, steroids, and an affair changed everything. Arthur’s life spiralled out of control.

Ian’s story – Body building was Ian’s life – that and becoming No.1. Being a doorman, debt collector and drug dealer kept Ian supplied with illegal steroids. Life for Ian was a cesspool of lies, deceit and violence.

What changed them?
