How Ministry Helped Me Heal pt 2. | Raymond Carrillo #22

In this powerful and vulnerable part 2 conversation, I sit down with Raymond Carrillo, the next-generation student ministries pastor at Oak Hill Church, whose faith journey is anything but typical. From the wounds of childhood abuse to years of running from the very God who could heal him, he shares the raw, honest story of how he finally stopped running—and discovered a purpose worth pursuing. This episode goes deep. We explore the formative experiences that shaped his early years, the pain that drove him away, and the profound moment when grace broke through the walls he'd built. Today, as he leads the next generation of young people through their own spiritual journeys, he carries these lessons with conviction and compassion. Whether you're wrestling with doubt, carrying past wounds, or searching for your way back to faith, this conversation will inspire you to believe that no matter how far you've run, God's love is still calling you home.
