After his out-of-body experience, God brought him back to share a message of hope in Jesus Christ.
 
Tony Davis was one of six children raised in Canton, Mississippi, by a mom who insisted they attend church every Sunday. As a teenager he accepted Jesus as his Savior. After college he began to pursue his dream of becoming an R&B singer one day.
 
He moved to Hollywood and his group, A Touch Plus, landed a record contract with Warner Brothers. The music scene drew him in with some powerful distractions.
 
"I began to party hearty," Tony recalls. "I did the Soul Train dancing stuff. But I knew something was missing. Every time I left a party I felt empty."
 
One day, feeling somewhat dejected, he was driving his red 300 ZX on Mulholland Drive, came around a curve too fast and almost went off a cliff.
 
He pulled over in the dirt next to the edge and lifted up a prayer to God. Thank you God—I didn't go over that cliff. I know I have to change, he mouthed.
 
Rededication
 
To escape the fast lane, Davis moved to Atlanta and began to attend Hopewell Baptist Church. A "fire and brimstone" message pierced his heart and he rededicated his life to Christ.
 
A few days later, he asked God to remove his desire to sing R&B music.
 
He heard a voice speak to his heart: Take one step forward.
 
Standing alone in his apartment, he took one step forward and something surprising happened. All his feelings to sing R&B went away. He shook his head, thinking, What just happened?
 
He married his wife, Chriselda, in 1995 and began to pursue his new passion, singing Gospel music.

It seems her friend's car had broken down, two streets away from the facility where Chriselda worked. Tony found the friend and her children, put them in his jeep, but when he turned the corner and pulled up to the facility, gunfire began to ring out.
 
"Bullets hit the front of the jeep and one hit my door," Tony recounts.
 
Why is this happening? Tony wondered. I don't have any enemies. I never even held a gun. I'm only about singing.
 
He punched his foot on the accelerator and sped away from the curb. "I went around the corner as fast as I could. My right tire was flat. I pulled over to the side."
 
Then he wondered if his wife had come out of the facility and got caught in any subsequent gunfire. He ran back on foot, and thankfully, she was all right.
 
When police arrived, they informed them that three people had been killed recently only a few blocks away during a gang initiation. They said Tony probably had been chosen as a random victim—part of the initiation.
 
The police called a tow truck for his jeep and left to pursue someone they suspected in the attack. They told Tony they would return soon.
 
Second attack
 
Fifteen minutes later a truck pulled up, but then "everything went into slow motion."
 
Several gang members emerged from the shadows of nearby trees and began to fire at Davis. The truck driver threw his vehicle in reverse and quickly sped away, leaving Tony alone and exposed.
 
"I ran toward my jeep," Tony recounts. "The first bullet hit my leg. I limped until I dropped down beside my jeep." He felt extreme pain and his pants leg getting wet with blood. He knew he had been shot.
 
In the next few moments, the shooters sprayed 32 bullets toward him. "Five of those bullets went in and out. There were five shots and 10 holes. Each one went in and out."
 
Then the Lord spoke to his heart, Stand up and face your enemy.
 
With blood draining from his body, Tony managed to lift himself off the ground and saw one young man peering out from behind a tree.
 
"Why?" Tony called out. "What have I done to you? In the name of Jesus put down the gun!" he declared.
 
When the gang member heard the name of Jesus his hand began to tremble. "My God what have I done?" the young gang member said. Then he turned and ran.
 
Tony walked another 10 feet toward a streetlight and collapsed on the ground. Lying in a pool of his own blood, Tony lifted up his hands to God. Why have you deserted me? I can't believe you let this happen after I dedicated my life to you.
 
Tony thought he heard legions of demons laughing at him. Then he remembered a Scripture from his mom's favorite book of the Bible, Job.
 
"Though he slay me, yet will I will trust him."
 
Tony realized God didn't do this, the devil did it. I trust God's will for my life, he decided. (Photo credit: Aimee Herd)
 
Suddenly a woman in white appeared out of nowhere. "I saw her walking toward me. Her hair was black and gray. I couldn't speak I was so weak.
 
She rubbed Tony's head and said, "My God, what have they done? It is going to be all right," she told him.
 
Floating away from his body
 
Tony felt his heart stop beating and suddenly he had an out-of-body experience. "I floated up and saw my body lying there. I floated in beautiful white clouds. I began to feel good.

Then a window opened in the clouds. "Way off in the clouds I saw a huge beautiful city far away from me." He saw beautiful colors he had never seen on earth before.
 
Above the city, there were...
