Over four decades ago, a God-loving family and nurse refused to give up on a baby boy born without a brain. They chose to pray, believing that a miracle would happen. And it did. Today, he is an evangelist minister with a powerful testimony and is leading others to faith in God.
Jacob Phillips, 44, lives in West Monroe, Louisiana. His story began at Louisiana’s Bossier General Hospital on Dec. 12, 1977, where he was delivered by Caesarean section. Phillips says he was born with “triple trouble,” and his doctors weren’t too hopeful that he would survive.
