Gina Bonomo was a devout atheist. Raised in a highly intellectual, science-driven family, she looked down on religion as fantasy for the uneducated. But everything changed during a drug-fueled college moment when she left her body and encountered Jesus Christ—something she dismissed as a hallucination for decades.
Years later, while facing a terrifying pregnancy complication, she heard that same unmistakable voice again. That moment triggered a spiritual awakening that unraveled everything she once believed.
In this episode, Gina shares her raw, gripping story of transformation—from mocking Christians to becoming one. If you’ve ever wondered whether God is real, this conversation just might change your mind.

I’ve been a Christian since 1981. I’m beginning to allow myself to identify as a follower of Jesus Christ when I’m around someone to whom the label of Christian brings on a negative reaction.
How can we connect with her more? Does she have a channel or an instagram?
I have an evil spirit in me(I don`t know how many they are) . It took over my body, and made me think it was God. It regularly told me I am the Lord your God. It regularly said that to me; it even made me write books out of nothing; about what happens after death; about the tree of life, it enticed me totally; it gave me a lot of short term evil prophecies, and convinced me entirely that it was God. It gave me false truths; It gave me a lot of short term futile success; It made me speak in demonic tongues, and I believed it without knowing it and so I thought it was from God. It made me not know what was happening around me; I couldn't even feel. It made me numb to everything. It made me totally empty. It made me so depressed. It destroyed everything in me, and around me, it made me quit very good jobs, it guaranteed me that it was going to provide me with money. So I listened to it, It was'nt until it destroyed my marriage, and got me sent to the mental institution twice that I realized I was being controlled the whole time by an evil spirit. That the whole time, I was being manipulated and led by an evil spirit. It made me so depressed, sad, and bitter. It made me arrogant without me knowing I was arrogant, it made me rude, without me knowing I was rude, it controlled everything, I did and said, it controlled my thinking, and my everything; and I couldn't not resist its force. Any single thought I have, it takes over it. Its last wish was to destroy my marriage. So it led me through out the marriage to be so inconsiderate; It made it such that I couldn't even feel any emotions, I was just empty; The whole time I was being controlled like a robot by this evil spirit, and I had no idea what was happening around me and to me. I couldn't connect with my wife, I didn't listen to my wife, it wasn't because I didn't want to, but because this evil spirit in me totally stopped me from listening to my wife. It said it was God and so I should only listen to it, that it will show me how to lead. I believed it because it gave me a job, certificates, and provided money for my family, but what I did not know is that whatever it gives with the left hand it takes more than double with the right hand. But every thing it gave me came at a cost. I was never ever controlling in any relationship; but when this evil spirit took over my body; it changed everything about me; . The evil spirit got me totally blindsided; I just believed everything it said; it tempered with my dreams, tempered with my thoughts; constantly gave me thoughts of my wife being unfaithful, it made me totally disregard a lot of things happening around me. It made me think I was chosen to be a pastor, and that it was God. I believed it, because I did not know better. It made me quit jobs for no reason; It has fully taken over my body, soul, spirit and mind, and it torments me day and night now because it knows I know it`s an evil spirit. It abuses me in dreams – sometimes in the open at night when I`m sleeping; I even got raped last time at night by the spirit.
I`m currently writing this, and it does not want me to write it. but I need help; so much help from Jesus Christ.
I need deliverance in the name of Jesus Christ. I`m in Canada but I don`t have the means to go get deliverance anywhere; THis demon torments me every second of the day. PLease I need help from Jesus Christ.
Also remember, GOD gave us free will.
God create everything, and you are being created. The created has no right to tell God what to do but God has absolute right to be the Lord of both good and wicked ppl. All answers are written in bible. Again, it is not a myth. Human loved to be deceived and become so lazy to look up where and what the truth is and that’s explain why human souls were perished in hell in the eternity. Some ppl think that they are God that fall into the trap set up by the enemy.
all Christian’s are uneducated that was fallacy. She was indeed not make sense and illogical.
I love this woman,
great testimony. She talks like she was a stoner..lol. I'm glad Jesus said it wasn't her time. She is a blessing and strengthens my faith.
How can anybody know he has seen Jesus of Nazareth, as nobody has seen him before? Explain me this if you can? So, people saying they have seen Jesus are either lying or they have been deceived by the father of lies: Satan! It's one or the other.
This interview is incredible. It stirred me up to have more faith in God for something that I am trusting him for that seems impossible. I know it’s possible with him ❤

Acknowledging your parents aren't perfect doesn't mean they don't love you or you don't love them.
You are beautiful Gina
This lady is a true Christian. She knows God she’s met Jesus and he is her friend , elder brother, and Savior.. she shouldn’t have to define herself by any other Christians views as to what a real Christian is. All that matters is that Jesus loves her and is with her. She should have her own church. I would go to it.
Love your relationship with Jesus!
No you are not suppose to be religious!
It's all about relationship!
Try listening to Jack Hibs.
He is such a good teacher.
Sticks to the Word and teaches it word by word concept apon concept.
❤
God is going to use you greatly.
What a beautiful testimony!
What an interesting and different born again experience. She actually built relationship with God first and not with the church. She plucked into God and not the Christian religion. This is amazing and I believe the best.
I used to think Christianity was nonsense. I grew up loosely Buddhist. I graduated from a liberal arts Jesuit University, where science, critical think was drilled into us. I came to Christ at age 30/31. I am amazed that Christ is alive and he can talk to us. In Asian culture we believe in spirits, dreams, etc, but we were powerless against spirits. In Christ we have authority. Praise Jesus!
This testimoney resonated with me more than most. I know so many people who had her attitude as an athiest. Her love for Jesus almost made me feel jeleous. It made me realize I need to spend more time just loving Him rather than sharing my prayer requests with Him. Thank you for sharing!❤
'devout atheist' is a false label that no atheist would describe themselves by. atheism is simply the absence of god belief. thats it. we are all born atheists. lying for your lord is still lying. shame.
What make one a Christian is the belief in Jesus as the risen Savior.
I ask saw Jesus. About 20 years ago I was visiting a friend in a rural setting. I was outside on the property. There were cattle on each side in paddocks the whole area was just beautiful. It was kind of on a hill, it ran down to the ocean , I was just admiring the view , when I saw Jesus appear above me and to the left of me . I was just in awe and I suppose wondering , what I was seeing or believing , at that moment my friend and my husband came outside and saw my face, and asked , what did you just see Vicki? I could hardly answer them, but eventually I said , I’m JUST SAW JESUS. It was the most beautiful thing and to this very day that vision is still embedded in my mind . I will never forget it . 🙏🙏🙏💯❤️❤️❤️
😂 she said she didn't think Jesus was expecting to see her.. love it. Interesting story.
I love it!! Such a powerful story of transformation!
DEAR GINA THANK YOU 🙏
GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL YOUR LOVED ONES AND YOU ARE STILL BEAUTIFUL
DONT BELIEVE THE LIE THAT SAYS YOU ARE NOT!!
I SO APPRECIATED THIS BECAUSE IT GAVE ME HOPE FOR MY LOVED ONES WHO ARE ATHEISTS…IT HELPS ME TO HAVE FAITH THAT THE LORD WILL SAVE THEM TOO
(THEY LITERALLY THINK I AM MENTALLY ILL FOR BELIEVING 😢 🤦♀️ BUT YOUR TESTIMONY GIVES ME HOPE
THANK YOU 🙏
THANK YOU 🙏
THANK YOU 🙏
