Raheem Sterling Finds Faith, Gives Life to Christ After Arsenal Move: Video

• England international Raheem Sterling has made a giant spiritual step after he gave his life to Jesus Christ
• The 29-year-old's bold leap of faith comes on the back of his deadline-day transfer to Premier League side Arsenal
• He could make his maiden appearance for the Gunners as soon as September 15 against Tottenham Hotspur

New Arsenal signing Raheem Sterling has taken a significant step in his personal journey by giving his life to Jesus Christ, marking a fresh chapter both spiritually.

After a tumultuous period with Chelsea, Sterling’s future remained uncertain until his last-minute transfer to the Gunners on deadline day.

While yet to don the Arsenal shirt on the pitch, the 29-year-old forward seems determined to turn things around after a challenging stint at Stamford Bridge, as noted by Football London.

Sterling gets baptised after giving his life to Christ

Beyond football, Sterling’s decision to embrace his faith has been a major development in his life, as seen in viral videos circulating on social media.

The footage shows the England international dressed in white, addressing a congregation and sharing his testimony of coming to Christ.

The moment of commitment was sealed when he was baptised in a pool of water, symbolising his renewed faith.

Sterling’s choice to focus on his spirituality could offer a sense of grounding, something that might positively influence his career at Arsenal.

A move away from Chelsea and into Mikel Arteta's tactical setup may provide the fresh environment needed to rediscover his best form.

At Manchester City, Sterling thrived under Pep Guardiola, often excelling as an inside forward.

Arteta, who values dynamic wingers with an eye for goal, could offer Sterling the platform to get back to his best, particularly as Arsenal aim to challenge for major honours this season.

What's next for Sterling?

Looking ahead, Sterling could make his Arsenal debut on Sunday, September 15, in the highly anticipated North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur, as noted by Sofascore.

With the Gunners striving for their first Premier League title in over twenty years, Sterling’s addition could be pivotal in bolstering their attacking options.

His pace, directness, and ability to exploit space could be the key Arsenal need to reinvigorate their campaign, especially after dropping crucial points against Brighton just before the international break.
