Christian Testimonies

For this entry, I want to concentrate on three testimonies of Christian musicians. I want to talk about Lacey Mosley, lead singer of Flyleaf, and Joseph Rojas, lead vocalist for Seventh Day Slumber. I also want to talk about Brian Head Welch, former guitarist of Korn.

I have included a summary about each musician and their testimony. I also have videos of each artist sharing their personal testimony. I really hope you will take time to watch these moving and powerful videos of these three amazing Christians.


Lacey Mosley is the lead vocalist for the Christian rock band Flyleaf. Flyleaf’s debut album sold over 1 million copies and was certified platinum. Their second album, released in 2009, sold over 56,000 copies in the first week.

Lacey had a very tough childhood. She grew up as an atheist, and believed it was her mission to tell others there was no God. At the age of 16, Lacey decided to commit suicide. The day before she planned to end her life, Lacey got into a huge fight with her grandmother. After the argument, Lacey’s grandmother forced her to go to church. While at church, Lacey had a supernatural encounter with God. Through the help of a sermon and a deacon, Lacey accepted Jesus Christ into her heart.





Joseph Rojas is the lead singer for the Christian rock band Seventh Day Slumber. Seventh Day Slumber is known for playing driving, rock anthems with lyrics about issues facing youth today. But, like so many other Christian bands, Seventh Day Slumber puts Christ at the center of all the lyrics.

"There are things going on with Christian kids that no one wants to talk about because we¹re supposed to be happy," said Joseph Rojas, lead singer and guitarist for Seventh Day Slumber. "When talking about those issues, we always paint Christ as the answer to hurting people and tough situations."

Like Lacey Mosley, Rojas also had a very troubling childhood. When he was young, Rojas vividly remembers his father physically and verbally abusing his mother. While growing up, Rojas was constantly being teased for being Hispanic, overweight, and poor. When Rojas was in his teens, he began experimenting with cocaine, in order to escape the pain of life. By the age of 21, Joseph Rojas was a convicted felon, thief, atheist, and had a $400 a day cocaine addiction.

One day, Rojas decided to commit suicide by taking a lethal amount of cocaine. While overdosing on cocaine, his mother walked in on him. His mother quickly called the paramedics. In the back of an ambulance, Joseph Rojas found the love of God. Later on in life, Rojas also had the opportunity to lead his father to Christ.





Brian Head Welch is the former guitarist for the highly publicized heavy metal group Korn. Since the band’s formation in 1993, Korn has sold over 16.5 million records, earned 6 grammy nominations, and released 33 singles.

After being with the band for almost 12 years, Welch left the band in 2005 after he accepted Jesus Christ. While being a member of Korn, Welch had a debilitating addiction to methamphetamine. Welch’s miraculous transformation started when he became a father. Brian was especially affected when his daughter began singing explicit lyrics from Korn songs.

Brian Welch was first witnessed to by his real estate broker. Over the phone, his real estate broker quoted Matthew 11:28 to him. The verse reads, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” This Bible verse turned out to have a profound impact on Welch’s life. Soon after his conversation with the broker, Welch became a Christian, became completely sober from drugs, and quit the band Korn. Welch firmly believes that God used his daughter to save him.

Since his conversion, Welch has now joined the world of Christian rock. He released his debut Christian metal album, Save Me From Myself, on September 9, 2008.

This video of Brian Welch is featured on the website I Am Second. This website features testimonies from people around America. It includes testimonies of famous athletes and coaches such as Jason Witten, Josh Hamilton, Darrell Waltrip, Joe Gibbs, Tony Dungy, Sam Bradford, and Colt McCoy. Stephen Baldwin, Mike Huckabee, and Jason Castro are also on the website presenting their testimonies.
