Shot 8 Times and Left for Dead: Marcus Stanley's Incredible Testimony

Shot 8 Times and Left for Dead: Marcus Stanley's Incredible Testimony

What Would You Do If You Were Shot Eight Times? Today, I sat across from a man who shouldn’t even be alive. Marcus Stanley was shot eight times at point-blank range, left for dead in the street, and in that moment, he saw what he believes was an angel standing between him and every bullet. I needed you to hear from this man because Marcus isn’t just here to tell a story about survival—he’s here to remind us what it means to keep going when everything around you says it’s over. Marcus and I talk about the dark years that followed his shooting, years where painkillers turned into addiction, and addiction turned into heroin. We talked about what it feels like when your life gets blown apart, and you have to learn how to walk again, literally and spiritually. Marcus told me it was forgiveness—real, hard, gut-wrenching forgiveness—that unlocked his freedom, even though the men who tried to kill him never paid for what they did. And you’ll hear how Marcus went from a man chasing fame as a musician to a man who wakes up every day asking, “How can I serve?” His faith became real not in the moment he was shot, but in the quiet, hidden years of service and surrender afterward, staying in a treatment center for four years to help others with no pay, no spotlight, just a calling to be there for the one person who might need hope that day. Marcus’ story isn’t about surviving a tragedy; it’s about what you do after you survive. It’s about taking one more step when you don’t know if you can, believing that God’s not done with you yet, and choosing gratitude for every breath, every step, even if you feel pain with each one. I want you to hear this conversation because if you’re feeling like you’re on your back right now, Marcus’ journey will remind you that you’re never alone, and you can get back up. Why Marcus believes forgiveness was the key that broke his chains of addiction What it felt like to see an angel while being shot at point-blank range The hidden years of service that shaped Marcus into the man he is today How to find hope and take one more step, even when you feel you can’t Why your suffering can produce endurance, character, and hope if you let it Key Takeaways: If you’ve ever questioned whether God is with you in your lowest moments, or if you’re carrying your own scars—Marcus’ story is your reminder that you are held, you are loved, and you are here for a reason.
