asap-preach-offical

I’m Ian Barnett also known as “ASAP Preach”. I was born on April 15, 1988, throughout my childhood I experience my parents having a lot of parties. There was a lot of drugs and drinking around, and I was exposed to a lot of things that I shouldn’t have been exposed to. At the age of 11 years old, I was sexually abused. Leaving me with a perverted view on life. All I could think about was lust and fulfilling fleshly desires. I felt like I couldn’t tell nobody what I was going through, so I just bottled it in. Trying to numb the pain of feeling rejected and misunderstood I fell into drugs and started hanging out with gangs. ​ ​ In 2007, I was at rockbottom, sleeping on the floor of random peoples houses. I ended up getting arrested at one of the hardest times of my life! To the point, I told the officer to “shoot me in the head I didn’t wanna live anymore”. They arrested me and took me back into my cell. There was a Bible in there and when I opened up this Bible, it started speaking to me as if there was somebody else in the room. I’ve began to have this peace inside of a place where people don’t find peace. I always believe that Jesus died 2000 years ago on a cross for my sins, but I never knew you could have a relationship with him. But I felt the Holy Spirit in that cell.
