Saved on the Edge: Ken Faulk’s Terrifying Experience & Transformative Journey | Signs and Wonders

My windshield wipers were going a mile a minute, I could hardly see, and I heard a voice… “if this bridge collapses you're going straight to hell”. when Jesus walked the earth he was constantly telling the Jews you're always seeking a sign. Little did I realize, that signs, and wonders, would become a part of my life.

 

I was born in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, but raised in a small little village about 20 miles east of Pittsburgh called Export. I was writing a school bus and someone had decided to put up a sign

that read you must be born again to enter Heaven. I wondered what that was a couple of years later I ran into a football player, who told me he gave his life to Christ. He invited me to come to

his church I wasn't too sure about attending, but I heard myself say yes. Little did he know that he was a sign. A couple of years later, I was in the military, a soldier came down and sat on

my bunk and spoke to me about Jesus Christ. He was a sign. A few years later, I was managing a truck terminal in New Stanton, Pennsylvania, and a truck driver came into my office and boldly told me how he was born again through the power of Jesus Christ. He was a sign, and believe me, he was a wonder.

 

Later on in life I was working for Mobil Oil Corporation and I made some wrong turns. I was wanting to make a lot of money. On the outside people would look at me and think I was successful. I had a nice job. I had a nice income. I had a beautiful wife I had three children. Everything was good on the outside, but inside I didn't have peace. I wasn't happy.

 

I went on this business trip to New York City, but before leaving my home, I turned to my wife at the front door and I told her that “when I returned from this trip we wouldn't be married anymore” we were getting a divorce.  It was a particularly week when Hurricane Agnes came up from the Gulf.  It was a terrible hurricane. I had been driving in rain for a long time. My windshield wipers were going a mile a minute. I could hardly see. It was just terrible. I got up on the turnpike and as I approached the Susquehanna River Bridge, I put my foot on the brakes. I could see water, and I thought to myself. I don't know if I want to go out

on that bridge, but I had no other recourse, and out on the bridge I went. I glanced at the waters and I saw an entire tree coming with roots and all. It looked like a torpedo, and I thought, if that tree hits one of the pillars of this bridge, this bridge could collapse. And I heard a voice… “if

this bridge collapses you're going straight to hell”. My lifestyle was such that I knew it was right. I never again looked at the water. I gripped the steering wheel and I spoke out loud saying, “if only I can get to the other side”.

 

I made it to the other side of the bridge. I was so relieved. I kept

driving and driving and I got to Somerset, and I heard the voice again… “stop and see Andy”. “Ken Faulk’s down here to see you Andy”.  “Andy says come right up”. I went up to his office and as soon as I saw him, I knew that something was different. “I was in my driveway this morning Ken, and the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said go back in the house and get

your Bible you're gonna have a visitor today”.  And with that, he opened up his middle desk drawer and pulled out about his bible. His office was changed from a business center, to a cathedral. He said “Ken, I feel led by the Holy Spirit to ask you… Do you want to receive Christ?”  I said “Andy, I do.” He said “simply say a prayer after me, he said Ken, if you mean it with all your heart, he said, Jesus will do the rest”. I finished saying that prayer, stood up, and

heard myself say “praise God”. I heard myself say “hallelujah” and I was born again. Not only did Christ forgive me of my sins, but my loving wife.

 

Later on in life God directed me to begin a ministry. It's called signs and wonders, whereby we

put up billboards proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ through the born-again experience. We've had countless stories over the years of people who have been affected by these signs, but you know for a sign to be recognized, one has to be looking. So we'll leave you with this… are you looking?
