I've received a number of interview pitches, but Mason Skaggs sent me one of the wildest pitches I’ve ever read: “I started using drugs at 14 years old and began worshipping Satan shortly afterward. I eventually got to the point where I had a new sexual partner about every week, sold ounces of cocaine, used heroin and meth and a slew of other drugs daily, and continued worshipping demons for power and fame. I had supernatural experiences regularly. I am skipping a lot of details, but I ended up having an overdose that changed everything.” Needless to say, I responded to that email and I’m so glad I did. Though Mason’s story is a jaw-dropper, it’s not just that. Ultimately, it’s a picture of how grief, abuse, and cultish theology led a young boy to go his own way — until he finally found his way back into the arms of his loving and impossibly patient Savior.
