1. Jon Pedley
People say that a near-death experience could change someone completely. That is probably the case for Jon Pedley. He had the experience after suffering from a car accident in 2002. He was in a coma and it could go either way, life or death. It was considered a miracle that he survived.
Before the accident, Pedley was living an alcoholic life. Drinking and womanizing are probably the least worst things he did. But after that, he had a profound change of heart and became closer to God.
However, only until eight years later that he made a brave move. He sold his luxury farmhouse, his business, and gave the money away. And that’s not all. Pedley moved to Uganda to follow his friend on a charity work.
To experience the real life in Uganda, Pedley decided to live in a mud hut. He has been helping local orphans there. He also helps troubled children in UK by sending them to work with him in Uganda. Eventually, those children will help themselves by helping others.
