Daniel underwent a journey from disconnection to faithfulness. Growing up in a Vietnamese Christian community, he struggled to meet church expectations amidst his own doubts and fears. Feeling isolated, he turned away, finding love in friendships outside of the church. Yet, the Lord led him back, where he discovered love and acceptance through church and Cru. Inspired by the Prodigal Son parable, he accepted Christ, finding purpose in sharing the redemptive love of Christ with others. Following his high school graduation, he volunteered for two years with Cru and is now in his first year of internship, connecting students to the same loving community that saved him.
As he transitions to Parable, he hopes to impact students’ lives through Spirit-led stories, just as the Prodigal Son parable impacted his own.
