Sitting all alone in a cold, dark cell day by day, Wyatt was filled with remorse
and fear. He often thought about suicide. His mom suggested he turn to
Scripture, but he balked. Yet, for the next few weeks, he would walk by a prison
bookshelf stuffed with Bibles. One day, out of sheer frustration, he grabbed
one. He sought to silence his conscience by proving Christians dead wrong, but
instead, his heart was touched as he read. After studying the amazing life of
King David one day, Wyatt fell to his knees and asked God to forgive him. He
had found hope, cleansing, and amazing peace! God had used the monotonous
gridlock of prison to finally get his attention.

With a Bible and a small radio, Wyatt eagerly searched
even deeper for freedom in biblical truth, and that’s
when he “stumbled” upon Bible Answers Live, Amazing
Facts’ radio program. To get better reception, he had to
stand on his bunk and hold his radio over his head next
to his cell’s three-inch-thick window. “I loved hearing

callers ask the exact questions I had,” he explains.
Since he couldn’t call in, he often prayed that his
questions would be answered during the Sunday night
broadcasts. Many times they were, but he also learned
many new things he’d never heard before.
“Through Bible Answers Live,” Wyatt says, “I learned
how God wanted me to keep the seventh day holy.” He also learned the truth
about what happens at death, freeing him from the spiritual deceptions that had
tormented him for years. Then through the mail, Wyatt requested the Amazing
Facts Bible Study Guides. Those powerful lessons were so totally life-changing
that he was soon giving Bible studies to fellow inmates, sharing the liberty he
found in the Bible truths he had learned through Amazing Facts.
Because his conversion was so clear, by God’s grace, Wyatt’s sentence was
reduced for good behavior and, after 14 years in captivity, he walked out a free
man. But his freedom wasn’t just from iron bars. “I learned about Jesus and His
love for me. What a Savior!” (Read on to learn how to get a copy of Wyatt’s
amazing new book.)

Messages of Power
I praise our Lord that He allowed you,

through Amazing Facts, to play a key role

And now he and his new wife, Jenni, are
