The Transformation of Douglas “DJ” Kennedy

Douglas “DJ” Kennedy

DJ was directed to Shekinah Go on his last day in detox. A new nurse who had never met asked him where he was going and she offered up Cal’s name and number for him to contact. He realised that turning to God for help was his last resort as nothing else had ever worked.

The hardest part of his journey so far has been getting rid of old habits and old mindsets that kept him from moving forward.

One of the highlights of his journey has been his ability to read and actually retain what he has read. He always struggled with retention of information, but now is spending time in reading the word and being able to recall and apply the things that he is reading.

He is looking forward to being a support to others coming into the program. He wants to help people understand the importance of letting go of the old, and pushing forward with what Christ is calling you to do with your life. He looks forward to sharing the Gospel and the transformative power that comes from a relationship with Jesus Christ.

One of the verses that he has applied to his life is John 15:13 - There is no greater love than to give his life for his friends.
