I was that Lost Sheep! (Ava Rosario)

Ava grew up in a family that practiced the teachings of the Watchtower Society and identified as Jehovah's Witnesses. Despite this upbringing, she decided to rebel against her family and their customs. Searching for fulfillment, she explored different paths but eventually hit a low point as an agnostic necromancer, seeking answers in the world of spirits and crystals. Despite her efforts, she couldn't find happiness or contentment and instead felt overwhelmed by anger and depression. In this episode, Ava's story beautifully showcases the profound impact of answering Christ's call and following Him as our Good Shepherd. God's unwavering commitment to finding and bringing back His lost sheep will inspire genuine peace and fulfillment in your heart and soul.

About your hosts

Alexander Ortiz

Profile picture for Alexander Ortiz
I’m Alexander Ortiz, a Bible teacher, business owner, and host of The Relentlessly Biblical™ Podcast—a show dedicated to handling Scripture with accuracy, clarity, and conviction. My aim is simple: to help believers understand the full counsel of God’s Word and apply it without compromise in everyday life.

Away from the microphone, I enjoy road cycling, restoring classic cars, and traveling with my wife, Mary, in our motorhome. Wherever we are, our joy is the same: encouraging others with biblical truth and pointing hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Profile picture for Christian Lopez
Hey, I’m Christian. By God’s grace, my life is rooted in Jesus Christ, and that shapes everything: how I love my wife, how I show up as a dad to my two girls (Luna and Camila), and how I try to serve the people around me. Alongside my wife, I co-own Dearly Beloved Weddings, where we capture weddings through photo and video.

I’m also a worship leader, and it’s a genuine joy to help people see Jesus more clearly. For me, worship is less about musical style and more about heart posture. I love studying Scripture and theology because I want my life and leadership to exalt God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), and I’m still learning to live from the reality of my union with Christ.

There’s nothing like a good laugh, morning coffee, and a deep, thoughtful conversation. My favorite foods include Indian, Thai, and Spanish, and dry cereal is a go-to snack. One future goal of mine is to create and film an original short film.
