Page 204: Jason Lomelino: Faith, Free Burgers, and the Power of God’s Love

The Unfolding

Growing up in an alcoholic home, Jason Lomelino just wanted to find peace. He was confident religion wasn’t the answer and spent his days partying and drinking. But then one night he was “ambushed by the love of God” and all he wanted to do was tell people about Jesus. That’s when Jason got a crazy idea. Why not go into the darkest place he knew – the hard-partying streets of Isla Vista, California, and have a barbecue? That first night turned into more than twenty years, thousands of free burgers, and countless lives changed through the ministry of Jesus Burgers.
