US rapper and singer Jelly Roll, who won Best Contemporary Country Album for ‘Beautifully Broken’, delivered one of the night’s most striking moments.
“I believe that music had the power to change my life, and God had the power to change my life,” he said. “And I want to tell y’all right now, Jesus is for everybody. Jesus is not owned by one political party. Jesus is not owned by any music label. Jesus is Jesus, and anybody can have a relationship with him. I love you, Lord.”
Pietro Sarubbi, who played Barabbas in The Passion of the Christ, wasn’t just acting—he was being transformed.
Though he originally wanted to play Peter, Mel Gibson cast him as Barabbas, telling him: “Don’t look at Jesus until the moment your character is freed.”
When that moment came and his eyes met Jim Caviezel’s-Sarubbi said it felt like an electric shock. In that gaze, he felt as though Jesus was truly looking into his soul.
That single moment sparked a deep spiritual awakening that led him to embrace Christianity.
He later shared his testimony in the book “From Barabbas to Jesus – Converted by a Look”. Ш
Sometimes, one look is all it takes to change everything.

On October 6, 1536, William Tyndale was strangled and burned at the stake for translating the Scriptures into English for the common man. He was accused of heresy and given an opportunity to recant, but used his last words to pray with a loud voice, “Lord, open the King of England’s eyes!”
Within four years of his death, several English translations of the Bible were published in England at the King’s request, all based on Tyndale’s work.
Team GB’s Adam Peaty has opened up about his faith after winning a silver medal in the men’s 100m butterfly on Sunday evening.
Fresh out of the pool, a breathless but beaming Peaty told BBC Sport: “I gave my absolute all there. In my heart I’ve already won.
“These are happy tears. I’m not crying because I’ve come second, I’m crying because it took so much to get here.
“I’m a very religious man, and I asked God to show my heart, and this is my heart. I couldn’t have done more.”
Escaping gold by only two-hundredths of a second, Peaty tied with Team USA’s Nic Fink for second place. He maintains the world record for breastroke, of 56.88 seconds at the World Aquatics Championships in 2019.
The swimming star has been open about his struggles in recent years, and, having battled “three years of hell” with depression and alcoholism after the Tokyo Olympics, Peaty turned to Christ.
