What happens when God breaks through to someone who isn't searching for Him? Dan had it all figured out—a promising career path, financial prospects, and a future built entirely on his own terms. As a self-proclaimed "lazy atheist," he had systematically rejected faith since high school, boldly declaring, "I'm my own God. I make happen what I want to happen."

This powerful conversation challenges our assumptions about conversion narratives. Sometimes the most profound transformation isn't from darkness to light, but from good to infinitely better—from our limited human aspirations to God's boundless plan.
