From an Airplane Prayer to Baptism Landmark Stories with Sebastian

In this episode of Landmark Stories, Sebastian shares how being born with a physical deformity, undergoing nine surgeries, and experiencing bullying shaped the way he viewed himself and God. As the pressure of family responsibilities and loneliness grew, he turned to food and pornography for comfort while privately struggling with depression and thoughts of no longer wanting to live. Even after finding success in business, Sebastian knew an important piece of his life was still missing. A late night conversation, an online sermon, and a desperate prayer inside an airplane bathroom challenged him to search seriously for truth. That search eventually led him to a Landmark Story, Landmark Church, and the decision to be baptized. Sebastian’s testimony reminds us that God can meet us in our darkest and most unexpected moments, so share this story with someone who may need hope today. Thank you for watching a Landmark video.
