A couple recently shared their testimony, how they met at a strip club, and how God changed their lives.
At A Strip Club
Jerome and Denisse’s first encounter wasn’t at all ideal. They met in a strip club. And on that night, Denisse almost died.
But this imperfect love story reveals how God loves His people perfectly and how He turns all things around for our good.
Denisse shared, “On our first date, we actually went to a strip club. And then that night, at the strip club, I almost died that night.”
“We both had pain. I was trying to find fulfillment in other women. So, we were just two hurt people coming together, drowning our emotions in marijuana,” Jerome said.
Knowing Jesus
Even though this couple’s first date was in a strip club, it wasn’t an accident that they met that night. When they were high on drugs, deep questions about life would always come up.
“The moment we would start smoking, we would start asking all those,” Jerome said.
Denisse relied heavily on the New Age before, using crystals and sage. But it started to bother them both. The first time that it troubled Jerome badly was when he was at his mother’s house.

“I was chilling at my mom’s house. I used to be very addicted to masturbation and pornography. And I would start having these conversations in my head about… I just don’t believe in the devil. I’ll just make it to heaven. And those conversations would go on before and after I would watch porn. I would feel very bad,” he recalled.
The Drawing In
“The Father started drawing you in,” Richard commented, and Jerome agreed.
One night, when they were both high, they could tell that there was a demonic presence present.
And so, they started praying to Jesus. Physical manifestations began to happen, like a severe headache and shaking. But they didn’t stop praying. They just knew that God was setting them free!
From then on, the couple started reading their Bible. It wasn’t long before God started to convince them to change their lives.
“My TikTok switched around. I was just, you know, used to seeing these worldly things. But now, it’s all about Jesus. Healing, prayer, deliverance. God turned it all around.
“I dropped everything. I stopped cursing, and I stopped all these things. And I just started living for Him,” Jerome concluded.
