Testimonies have a powerful impact by strengthening the faith and boldness of the one testifying, inspiring gratitude and personal transformation, while also encouraging and unifying the church community through real-life evidence of God’s power, and deeply touching listeners by reviving hope, stirring faith, and opening hearts to believe that what God has done for one, He can do for them too.
