What 1,616 testimonies of God's work reveal

What counts as a testimony. An account of what God did in a real person's life, such as healing, provision, guidance, protection, coming to faith or a changed life, where Jesus or the Holy Spirit is clearly at work and God gets the credit.

Inclusion rules. Every curated testimony names a real, identifiable person and cites where the account was published: a book, article, ministry record, news report or first-person written testimony. Stories shared by Doxa members are published as written and attributed by the member's signed declaration (none are in the current count). Only approved and featured testimonies are counted here.

What is left out. Anonymous accounts, entries with placeholder or unverifiable sources, stories where someone improved with no clear sign of God at work, secular success stories, accounts that credit a person's own strength, and duplicates. Entries that fail review are archived and do not appear in these figures.

Source checks. Before publication each entry is reviewed for factual accuracy (dates, places and quotes), theological soundness and writing quality, including an adversarial check for claims that could be debunked. Book citations are matched to records at Open Library, and every source link is checked on a schedule. Doxa does not independently verify that the events happened. The archive records what was reported and shows where it came from, so you can weigh it yourself.

AI assistance. The work is AI-assisted. AI helps research, structure, summarise and categorise documented material and normalise dates and locations. The facts come from the cited published sources.

How the figures are counted. Years come from each testimony's catalogued year. Countries are read from the free-text location and mapped to present-day countries (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland count as the United Kingdom). Named people are counted from the credited author field: a person counts when a full name is given, so organisations, first-name-only credits and single-name historical figures are left out, and spelling variants of one name may count twice.

Updates. The archive grows as new accounts pass review and corrects entries as sources are rechecked. This page recomputes its figures from the live archive at least once a day; the most recent change to a counted testimony was on 11 October 2026.
