I never asked my parents where they got my name from until I was a teenager. Growing up, everyone would mention how I had a Hispanic last name. I was confused up until my teenage years, and then I asked. My mom told me they got my name from the Bible! I looked it up and saw that Perez was a twin brother and son of Judah! The name Perez in Hebrew means “burst forth” and “Breakthrough”. Finding that out gave me a new sense of identity.
THE SHORT TESTIMONY.
When I created Forever Hungry back in 2009, I was in pursuit of success. Forever Hungry was my way of saying I’m going to continuously chase after success my whole life; I’ll never be satisfied. I built a brand, climbed the ranks, accomplished many goals, and made good money. In 2021, my dad died, and I questioned everything. My dad’s death made life seem pointless. At my dad’s funeral, I handed his personal Bible. At that time, I was not following God, nor was I fully believing that God was real. I went to my hotel and opened the Bible, and the words started speaking to me VERY LOUDLY! For the first time, I started to see who God was and who Jesus is, and it changed my life. I understood God is real, Jesus is real, and that I needed a savior. I learned that I could not earn my way into heaven but that I needed to be made righteous. Righteousness can only come one way, and that is through faith in Jesus. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus is the only way into God's presence. I fully stopped doing art; it no longer satisfied me, all I wanted to do was spend my time following God. Until God started pushing me to create artwork again, but for the kingdom. I knew it was God because I was truly done with art; I no longer had a taste for creating, yet every time I read the Bible, God was giving me scripture, and I could hear “Forever Hungry”. God was filling my mind with ideas and creative ways to spread the gospel. I was commissioned to no longer create artwork that exalted myself, but create art that exalted God. God took the art I created in 2009 and gave it a new meaning and new life, just like he did for me.
