- Claudia Wells rose to stardom when she landed a big role in the hit movie series 'Back to the Future' starring Michael J. Fox. But it wasn't long after that she fell into obscurity. It wasn't until she was cast in the tv series, “Herbie the Love Bug" and it was there when one of the stars boldly shared Jesus with her. “He talked to me about the hole that was inside of me, and if I don't fill it with God, and if I don't fill it with Jesus Christ, it'll get filled with men and drugs and problems,” said Claudia.

I tried filling that void with alcohol, drugs, women and crime. I was miserable.
Became a Christian at age 19 and it was the best decision I ever made. ❤️✝️👌
He’s called living water. That’s a serious understatement. He’s like water after a fast. Even this is an understatement. Nothing can fill the God sized void except for him
I was a addicted for 22 years. I came to Jesus 10yrs ago . You young man are wise you chose Christ a lot sooner. Keep the faith 🙏
...welcome home!...
The sooner the better right? Never going back!
MANY PRAYERSNLUV,MY BROTHER IN CHRIST.👼👼✝️✝️❤️🔥❤️🔥🙏🙏🕊️🕊️🌹🌹
💖 who appreciates Back to the Future even more now? 🙌
And The Love Bug! ♥️🚗
You mean Herbie. that's how she heard the gospel. And who LOVES JESUS all the more for all He has done dying for the sins of the world & so many are saved & getting saved even now. GOD IS GOOD!
Now that I know who she is and some of her story, I appreciate that movie a lot more.
..... and Dean Jones too! 👍
Dean Jones did a great job playing the apostle John banished on Patmos
Claudia is not a mistake! She is a treasure, both onscreen and as a person! I'm sad she had to suffer all those years, but so happy that she discovered the truth and is being healed!
I really identify with her. I never thought I would.
@@michaelkrolewski7406 God bless and keep you Michael. You are SO IMPORTANT!!
Absolutely correct!
@@jasonmacneil2256 Thank you 😊 🙏
My husband, daughter and I met Claudia at a DeLorean convention around 2008. What a lovely lady. She is so nice! It's wonderful that she found the Lord. ❤️
I personally got rid of Christianity nonsense
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ.
@@iggyarctic5711 lol if you were born and raised in India youd be saying the same thing but instead of jesus, itd be brahma Krishna and vishnu and youd be telling everybody to read the bhagavad gita instead of the bible
@@h91rex100 there are many Christians in India
@@ih82r8 outliers exist in everything. Pointing them out doesn't weaken my argument in any way. My point still stands.
Christian testimonies always the best to hear 😇👍
Cos there the ONLY one's that actually Matter. 👍
Amen
Indeed!!! Praise God 😊❤️🙌
Well to be honest... its only from christians that we hear testimonies. Cause theres power in the Name of Jesus and in His Blood.
@Frikkie Smit
Amen! Other religions have gods; but their god does not love and desire a relationship with them to the point of taking on flesh to pay the penalty for their sins in order to cover the void that separated us. ...
Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; Neither are there any works like unto thy works.
Psalm 86:8 KJV
Brother DeanJones, not ashamed of Jesus! Jesus is Lord, so happy to hear Claudia’s testimony!
What a brave lady!! Jesus, still healing hearts and minds after 2000 years!
Amen to that!
Jesus is the alpha and the omega so not only for 2000 years has he healed hearts and minds but from the beginning of mankind.
YES He is Alive,in Heaven AT GOD'S right hand NOW,making intercession for the Christians.
Amen!!
Jesus is the way, the truth and the life!!! The name above every other name and the only name by which we are saved.
Wow, I always hated that they had a different actress for Marty's GF in Back To The Future 2, but knowing the backstory now I'm glad this woman's life turned out for the better. So few actors and actresses can go through life without falling into terrible lives. God was gracious to her.
At least she wasn't left on her front porch.
My thoughts exactly! I remember not liking thar they changed the actress, but now I understand and am grateful she stepped back.
What Dean Jones said to her is so true.
He nailed it 👏
I beieve Herbie would have said the same
Absolutely the truth and I went through similar except I do not have anything to do with the movies but it was 49 years old before I got it that God really did love me that he would have died just for me if that's what it would have taken and I gave my life to him 23 years ago on July 4th the year 2000 and I have never looked back and I was a Christian my whole life I just you know have this thing that I heard from my father that I would never amount to anything and he's right I didn't far as the world is concerned but for the last 23 years I'm done much better it's a journey especially when you got to get rid of those those old habits I didn't necessarily have all these bad habits not that I was by any means perfect but it was a mindset for me I just married and remarried and married and remarried looking for something to fill that hole and finally like I said when I was 49 I realized it was the Lord and I truly submitted to him completely I'm not saying I don't make mistakes I'm saying I'm looking forward and not looking back and I'm certainly looking for the Rapture at any moment
Very beautiful testimony. I wondered why she didn't go on to star in more films. She should definitely act in faith based movies.
Hollywood is all satanic pedophilles
probably because Hwood found out
The film industry is a strange place to work if you're a believer in Jesus Christ. You will be shunned for your morals, values & beliefs. Even conservative views get squashed!
Our God protected her from "The Industry" *ominous music plays*
🙌🏻🙏🏻✝️💕🛡
@Abundant Harvests My guess is that she doesn’t know any faith based companies/distributions that are out there. Who knows.
She is BEAUTIFUL, and her personality is STUNNING. I always loved her and her acting so much in Back to the Future! Such a wonderful woman! Bless her!
I agree 100%
I always thought she was so gorgeous. Now, even more!
I could see the demons fleeing away as she says, “I’m not a mistake!” And the angels of the Lord comforting her. The day of salvation is so precious 😇
Yes!! Spirit of rejection, abandonment, and self loathing. Praise God.
Narcissistic mothers are the most dangerous narcissist. They are who we look up to, we trust and we want approval from, more than anyone in the world. Bless you for accepting the truth from GOD!
God will always bless you Dear!!!👵😇🕊
Dean Jones was always one of the most admirable male actors in Hollywood. Too bad he's the exception rather than the rule.
Well he prayed the sinners prayer and she admitted that she really didn't know what it was about. Saying that prayer doesn't save anyone. A person has to know what it means and have a change of heart.
So encouraging to hear Claudia's testimony. I pray she continues to grow in the Lord.
So glad I didn't disown my mother even though I had every reason to, praise God.
What a beautiful testimony Claudia has and I'm so glad she shared it.
I haven't disowned my mom but she doesn't like to talk to me and she is just like her mom and I would do the same thing take care of my mom if it comes to it I am a only child
@Bretjessica Yanish I would have taken care of mine as well. So glad I don't have regrets, and it sounds like you won't either.
@@notovercome I have no regrets there is no time for that God has forgiveness and love and mercy for his loyal children
@Bretjessica Yanish Amen, God is good, and Just and everything we need.
Cutting toxic people from your life is a good thing.
How powerful Praise Jesus
Her love for her Mom is absolutely gorgeous. This is the love of Christ. Healing is a mysterious, and real. Not always is healing physical. The healing of the soul is powerful indeed. Thank you Claudia, for sharing your story.
Congrats to Dean Jones' Family, soo good to know that actors back then, had the courage to serve in God's Harvest field, were not ashamed of God's Gospel & Loved / Witnessed to the unsaved. IJN. ❣️🤴🛐
God bless her taking care of her mother even after all she did to her. I am so glad she was able to get past all of the pain and get her life together. God can help you through anything if you just give it to Him. God is good.
Lets pray more actors in hollywood get saved 😀
HALLELUJAH, THANK YOU JESUS !!!!!
💥💞✝️💞💥🙌💥
Her story is heartbreaking. I'm glad she has found hope.
Yeah me too
What a refreshing story of a actress in Hollywood who has morals and knows Jesus.
God bless this beautiful woman. Her testimony is so powerful.
“Im not a mistake” ❤️🔥
Some Testimony, WoW !
Amen !
That was so beautiful had me in tears. From Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦
What a heartbreaking childhood! 😢 I can’t imagine hearing my parents say they wish I was never born and I never said any such thing to my children. I was approached by a modeling agency when I was 19. I knew how ugly that industry was and that it would destroy my self-esteem which wasn’t that great to begin with! Praise God! I’m His child and my worth is in Him!!
That's great, that you said no to that kind of life.
Yes!! Proud of you for declining that offer, God was probably testing your faith!!
This broke my heart, her mother was a sick woman. So glad she met Dave and eventually found Christ. Bless her.
People throw mental health terms around casually, like slang; Suddenly everyone is a narcisist. But I think her mother was a narcisist. Narcisist parents are so dangerous to their children. I had two! I honestly feel it was a miracle I survived.
Everything she said about her mom rings true.
@@jtoland2333, Only God could have given you the inner strength to get through that. My parents were good parents but I suffered a marriage to a man who was a narcissistic man hiding behind a teddy bear facade.
Amen!! Praise Jesus for His great love!
Praise the LORD! May JESUS visit these celebrities in a supernatural way that they will turn to HIM & be saved so that the movie industry will be transformed by GOD.
She was *so BEAUTIFUL* , I was in love with "Jennifer Parker"! Glad to hear she's a *saved sister!* 😄
She made boys melt lol
@@12tribes61 Melt like pudding? 😅
I love this story--so glad for her. I heard the same filth from my mother ("I wish you'd never been born"), and it's a hard thing for a kid to hear. Thank God some of us get past it to the truth of salvation.
My Mom occasionally told us we ruined her life. No. She ruined it with alcohol.
@Juno @2degucitas my Mom wanted to abort me (would have been her 3rd) but my Dad insisted she marry him. He didn't even know if I was his. She didn't either but they married and had a horrible, miserable relationship. Both resented me for it but I didn't know why until I was 18, which is when they were waiting to divorce. She died of alcohol and tobacco just after. Eventually my adult daughter did an ancestry test and found she's related to my Dad. He's now 92, I'm 62, and we have a wonderful relationship! Jesus turned my horrible life into a fairy tale and to top it off, my Dad just came to believe in God after being a staunch atheist his hole life. Jesus sustained me throughout the trauma of being alive and now has blessed my family beyond anything i ever imagined those years I cried myself to sleep every night.
She is wonderful. A Daughter of Christ ✝️♥️🕊️
What a beautiful testimony. Thank you dear sister. Blessings 🙏❤️😇
Praise God for reaching into the darkness to save us 🙏❤️
Bless you Claudia 🙏
There was always something I really liked about Dean Jones. Now I know what it was. Somehow, you could tell God was working in that man and using him to help other people. Now I like him even more. Thank you, Dean! RIP, Sir!
She is so beautiful and you never know what people are going through. I had no idea a woman who shined on screen was going through that. And God is a healer. So happy you're doing good. God has you.
What A Beautiful Testimony On The Love Of Our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏🙏❤️❤️
Beautiful testimony!
She looks so beautiful, as someone who still has her soul intact.
Every blessing comes from him. Amen!
Such a beautiful story! God bless you 🙏
I really needed to hear this today. God bless you Claudia. ❤
Me too. I struggle with addiction and I am a Christian. I need to receive continual revelation of God's love.
@Michael krolewski
Amen! That is the journey Father God has me on now years after having attended a legalistic, works-based church. Just now learning that righteousness (right-standing with God) is a gift that can't be earned by my good deeds or works. (Romans 5:17)
Jesus paid it all. I had a sniffing addiction 15 years ago. I saw how deep I was in and surrendered it up to God. The next day when I woke up the desire was completely gone and I never returned to sniffing again. God loves you where you are as you are and He knows your struggle. Keep coming to him no matter what. Seek his face every day and develop a relationship with Jesus Christ. That's what he desires, not religion. ...
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Matthew 11:28-30 KJV
@J Cam Thank you so much.
This made me ugly-cry...
God is truly good. 🙏
"You don't deserveto be part of our family" words my father said to me in 1972, when I was 12 and grieving my grandmother 💔 (Denounced due to a bad report card). Some folks don't deserve to be parents. Claudia didn't deserve that mom - but WOW what a testimony from that test.
What a beautiful testimony!!! Thank you for sharing your story!! You are a beautiful woman!!! GBY!!
Praise god she survived. I can so relate because I was told by my guardian "your mom tried to drown you as a baby",
you will never be anything just like her".
Wow, Michelle, as a pastor, I see this so much, but it never ceases to shock me when I read/hear this. I hope you’re doing well. God bless you sister.
Michele I'm so, so sorry you were treated like that! You are amazing and beautiful! The person who said that to you is a terribly sick, sick person who needs help! Please don't ever believe the lies that come from those who turned their backs on God and His goodness! You my dear were created by your Father in Heaven who looks on you always as His precious and beloved child. You are valuable and valued and are worth far more than you can imagine! Please take care and leave those ugly statements and completely throw them out! Replace them with Scriptures about God's love for you. John 3:16 states that God loves you so much that He gave His one and only Son for you! That's a LOT of LOVE!!! Don't forget that okay? I love you and so does Jesus! Hallelujah! 💕💕💕
Hold your head high, Girl. Big Hug!
God.
Wonderful 🙏! God is good 👍!
Jesus Christ is our only hope for healing and restauration!
Love and blessings from Sweden 🇸🇪♥️
Wow! What a loyal daughter. She took care of her mother who abused her. At most, I would expect her to pay for her mother's cancer treatment in a hospital. Not give up her career. How selfless!
Selfless might be the wrong word as she did say she gave up acting to hurt her mother at the time.
@@Srekwah it could be but she still took care of her mom regardless. Most people with abusive parents would simply send them to nursing homes.
What a wonderful testimony. Not everyone in hollywood has sold their soul yo darkness. 🙏❤
Real and powerful testimony. Go Claudia!
God bless you Claudia ! soo proud of you and so happy to know that our Lord is your Shepherd too! Blessings from India !
That is one beautiful testimony of the love of God. I was in tears. Claudia Wells, your story is to the Glory of God! I thank our Lord and Saviour for you❤🔥⚓💒📖
Amen beautiful sister 🙏🏻❤️
This was beautiful! I’ve belonged to Jesus for 40 plus years now and I can say HE truly loves us and wants us to trust in HIM. The joy, peace and hope I feel everyday all comes from HIM.
God bless and protect you Claudia, for having the courage to share your story and give glory to God. 🙏❤️😇
God Bless you Claudia, so happy to hear you have a relationship with Jesus! Beautiful testimony!
I always wondered why she wasn't in the sequels. Wow, what a testimony.
One of my all time favorite movies. What an incredible woman of God Claudia is! I’m a crusty combat veteran and this touched a deep spot in my heart. May God be glorified through all of us who aren’t a mistake. God knew us in the womb and He loves us. Oh how He loves you.
Beautifull story.
Freedom in Christ is not easy sometimes.
What a testimony. Praise God for his loving grace.
AMEN Claudia!!! Praise God for your healing and transformation. He makes all things new!
She's very relatable. I grew up with a mom like that too, and I also resorted to drugs and alcohol to destroy myself. Also, like Claudia, I found Jesus after all that!! He had never left me, or forsaken me, He had plans to give me a hope and a future (with him for eternity.) He was waiting for me the whole time!! Now I live my life for Him and it's more fulfilling than I could ever imagine. Abundant life in Jesus! 💓
He's my everything...I learned how to love again.
Dean Jones and his wife talked to Claudia and shared The Gospel. Praise the Lord!
Claudia, you aren't mistake. God planned your birth,and it is wonderful. You are a child of the living Lord. I hope your clothing store continues to thrive.
Awesome testimony..I spent many years as a christian trying to deal with a father who due to his own pain hurt us all. I came to realise hurting people hurt people. God's love for me as a father replaced that heart of pain the more i chose to trust him.I love my dad and forgive him and celebrate that at 93 he is still with us.
At 18 mom told me my being born was a mistake on top of dad leaving the family when I was 9. Thanks to mom though, I met Jesus at our church from about age 5 to 9, and He is all I'd ever really need to keep me pushing on.
And a couple years ago when he was 81, I had my estranged, atheist dad also come to Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.
To me Claudia was a beautiful addition to BIT with a perfect body. Sounds like her mom was purposely trying to hurt her with lies about her body, which is devastating to a young child's psyche.
I'm glad to call you my sister in Christ.
Live long and well despite the coming storm of our lives...we'll be outta here and in Paradise soon enough.
Maranatha! 🙏✝️🙌
Wow! Claudia Wells has a message! There are many MANY who are ripe to hear her message. She is an evangelist! Jesus, thank You! Heap more and more strength and healing on Claudia Wells as there are many wells without water that need The Living Water.
Spring up o Well!
And... It was clear that Dean Jones had something special- it leaped off the screen as I was a child watching Million Dollar Duck and Herbie.
Thank You Jesus!
Oh how the movies seem to be bigger than life.
Thank You Jesus for saving us from such emptiness!
Thank you GOD for saving my beloved sister in Christ Claudia. GOD bless you Claudia. There is nothing worse than a parent saying your a mistake while your a teenager. GOD has given me grace with the biggest vision yet seen on Earth.
*What a miracle, that a special like this exists! We need more of this!!* 🙏🙏
So awesome. You never know how much pain can be behind a smile. So glad she is saved and found peace.
Thank you Claudia for sharing your testimony God bless you 🙏
What a BOLD and COURAGEOUS lady!!!!God bless you always,Claudia!!Your testimony is SO POWERFUL!!! I believe your testimony has and WILL bring MANY others to our PRECIOUS LORD JESUS CHRIST🙏🛐✝️
What a GREAT testimony! Praise Jesus Christ, our Lord & Savior!🙏
Great story and testimony. All the best Claudia.
You can do nothing without him (Christ). Amen
Praise the Lord awesome testimony

-> Always, Put / Place God First , and You will ‘ Never, ‘ be Last in this Fallen World!
Good to hear that you have joined the family of GOD. May you continue to be blessed by HIM and pass those blessings on to others.
Amen! Praise You, Father! You are faithful! Let the redeemed shout with praises!
I'm not the only one who grew up with such a mother.
Very inspirational story. I remember watching that movie and thinking she was incredibly beautiful. Never had a clue what she was going thru.
Thank you Claudia for sharing your heart warming testimony I am so glad you are in our lovely family God bless you dear sister
My mom made me body conscious too, she was not an alcoholic, just doing what she had done to her, by her sisters.
Wow!!! Thank You Jesus for this woman
Wow. So good to hear her testimony
Such a great testimony of GOD's power, grace and unfailing love!
A true gem in Hollywood. She is more influential than most others in acting
Wonderful testimony sister. God bless you.
What a beautiful lady with an amazing testimony!!! God bless her ❤
What a wonderful lady. I'm sorry she suffered so much in her life. I'm so happy for her now. Praise God!
Great testimony of the power of the Love of God. He is so Good to us, better than we are to ourselves. She is an Overcomer! Praise the Lord!
Absolutely beautiful! God bless you Claudia, continue to touch lives for Jesus ❤️
What an awesome testemony! God bless her.
Thanks for making back to the future. Aside from turning to Jesus that movie was probably the hilight of my life (childhood anyway ) in a world with so many bad influences back to the future was like a breath of fresh air imo
Beautiful testimony. That's one thing I have learned in my 59years...our patents were also broken wretched people in need of Christ.
what a beautiful testimony. I send you a million kisses Claudia for empowering the rest of us. You are a powerful woman of God!! Thank you,
