TPUSA Faith continued its Make Heaven Crowded Tour on Nov. 6 at Calvary Chapel San Jose in California, featuring Nala Ray, Ruslan, Brittni De La Mora, and Pastor Lucas Miles. 

Christian journalist Billy Hallowell conducted a discussion with Nala Ray and cultural commentator Brittni De La Mora about their former involvement in the adult film industry and how turning to faith brought them away from it.

The two women discussed what specifically led them into the industry and the trauma they ultimately experienced. At some of the most desperate and helpless moments of their lives, they felt compelled toward Christianity, and were empowered to leave their former work. 

Since leaving the industry, both Ray and De La Mora have worked to warn others about the harm of adult entertainment and how Christian redemption can transform the lives it is ruining.

De La Mora faced financial hardship after leaving the industry, but said that a few years into her faith, God blessed her with her husband. 

“And when God said that he was going to bless my life like no man ever could, I had no idea what he had in store,” she said. “I mean, I had to go through a lot of hardships. I went from being able to make millions of dollars to working for $11.25 an hour. My bank account was empty, but my heart was full; and a few years into being a Christian, the Lord blessed me with the most incredible husband.”

Ray criticized the pull many feel to chase material things.

“Everything society, this world told me I needed to chase, I got, I got it all,” she said. “I’m not telling you that to brag; but I’m telling you that to make you realize it’s never gonna be enough. You will never make enough money. You will never live in a big enough house. You will never drive the fastest sports car. You will never find complete fulfillment in any of that, because even in the Bible, it tells you that with ‘moth and rust’ it will decay. But Jesus does live.”

Similarly, for those seeking to break patterns that they find harmful to their lives, De La Mora pointed them toward Jesus, proclaiming that no quantity of objects in the world can bring such fulfillment.  

More stops are ahead for the Make Heaven Crowded Tour. Locations, dates, and speakers are listed on the tour website.
