Korn in the Pasture - Brian is Born Again

Sunday Paper - August 9th, 2009

WASHED BY BLOOD

In 2004, Brian hit rock bottom. It was hard for him to meet the demands of life on the road as well as being a single father. One of the turning points was when he heard little Jennea singing a Korn song called “A.D.I.D.A.S.,” which stands for “All Day I Dream About Sex.”  

Brian knew that he couldn’t keep Jennea in that life and wanted something to change.  Brian was depressed, deep into drugs and Internet pornography.

One morning, one of his business partners, Eric, sent him an e-mail out of the blue. Eric was a Christian, but didn’t normally share his faith with Brian. This day, it was different.  Eric gave Brian the Bible verse, Matthew 11:28-30, “Come to me, all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, there you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” 

Brian replied and Eric continued to tell him the truth about Jesus, which gave Brian hope.  God kept showing Himself to Brian through different personal events. Everywhere he went, it seemed people were telling him about Jesus.

In November 2004, Brian went on his last tour with Korn. During the Christmas holidays, God was calling to him and he was still struggling. Eric met Brian at a coffee shop and suggested that Brian ask Jesus back into his life. Brian said the prayer, but didn’t feel he meant it because he was high.

Then, Eric invited Brian to go to church and the service made Brian feel uncomfortable.  He thought it was really weird when the same scripture Eric had given Brian; Matthew 11:28-30 was projected on large screens in the church. That day, on January 9, 2005 Brian accepted Jesus and meant it. He still struggled with drugs and prayed that God would take them away. 

God delivered him from drugs in a short amount of time and took over Brian’s life. Brian left the old life behind, including almost two decades of drug abuse. He made the heart wrenching decision to leave Korn at the height of their success, and eventually made a new life with Jennea in Arizona.

Despite the many joys and pains with his new life, Brian is not looking back. God is his number one priority and he wants all God has for him.
