In this powerful episode of Kingdom Crossroads, host TS Wright sits down with Joe “Rooz” Russiello for a raw and inspiring testimony about how God radically transformed his life.
Joe grew up in a Roman Catholic family in Brooklyn, New York, but questions about faith began at a young age. After years of searching, rebellion, and living life on his own terms, Joe eventually found himself working in law enforcement in New York City — still searching for something deeper.
Everything changed when a Christian partner continually challenged him with one simple question: “Are you saved?”
What followed was a journey through Scripture, Christian radio teachings, and a life-changing meeting with a pastor on a New York pier where Joe finally surrendered his life to Jesus Christ.
In this episode you’ll hear:
- Joe’s upbringing in New York and early exposure to theology
- His struggles with religion, doubt, and worldly living
- How a persistent Christian coworker helped point him toward truth
- The moment he encountered the gospel and surrendered his life to Christ
- His calling into Bible teaching and ministry
- Why the Word of God alone changed everything
This conversation is a powerful reminder that no one is too far gone for God to reach.
If you have ever wrestled with faith, searched for truth, or wondered how God changes a life — this testimony will encourage and challenge you.
